Abstract excerpt
Two hundred Pseudomonas aeruginosa serial isolates from 61 cystic fibrosis patients were examined using restriction fragment length polymorphism in connection with pulsed field gel electrophoresis. A comparison was made of results obtained by genome fingerprinting and by conventional typing metho...
