  • Title: DNA fingerprinting by pulsed field gel electrophoresis and ribotyping to distinguish Pseudomonas cepacia isolates from a nosocomial outbreak.
    Author: Anderson DJ, Kuhns JS, Vasil ML, Gerding DN, Janoff EN.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1991 Mar; 29(3):648-9. PubMed ID: 2037688.
    Abstract:
    We typed 40 isolates of Pseudomonas cepacia obtained from patients involved in a single outbreak using pulsed field gel electrophoresis and ribotyping. All isolates from the majority of the patients, 16 of 18 (89%), were included in a single group. These typing methods should aid in the clarification of the epidemiology of infection with P. cepacia.
