Abstract excerpt
Despite its limited pathogenicity, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging nosocomial pathogen. This study investigated the isolation frequency, antimicrobial resistance and genotypic relationships of 205 S. maltophilia isolates from 188 patients in a university hospital between 1998 and 2003. Susceptibility profiles for 11 antimicrobial agents were determined by the NCCLS agar dilution method for...
