Abstract excerpt
The resistance patterns and O-serotypes of 2952 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were studied and the relationship between patterns and serotypes was investigated. The penicillinase-producing and cephalosporinase-overproducing phenotypes were significantly more frequent in intensive care units tha...
