Abstract excerpt
Endophthalmitis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with rapid disease progression and poor visual outcome due to high virulence of the organism. Our aim was to characterize the virulence determinants of P. aeruginosa causing post-operative endophthalmitis. Repetitive sequence analysis (ERIC PCR) was done to study the clonal relatedness of the 17 P. aeruginosa isolates. Type 3 secretion system (T3SS)...
