Epidemiologically related and unrelated strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotype O12 cannot be distinguished by phenotypic and genotypic typing.

Abstract excerpt

A clonal origin for European isolates of antibiotic multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotype O12 has been suggested. This study was designed to assess the value and limitations of several typing methods for the investigation of outbreaks due to this serotype. In Hôpital de Rodez, France, t...
