Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The Enterobacter cloacae complex (Ecc), routinely referred to as "E. cloacae" in clinical microbiology, encompasses several species with 12 genetic clusters and one sequence crowd that can be identified based on hsp60 sequencing. Little is known about the pathogenicity and distribution of resistance to antibiotics among the Ecc. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this prospective multicentre study, a total of...
