Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a common microbe isolated from divers with ear and skin infections. To obtain the epidemic characters of the occurrence of the P. aeruginosa infection, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was used to assess the genetic background of different strains isolated from divers involved in saturation diving. METHODS: A total of 64 P. aeruginosa strains from naval...
