脉冲场凝胶电泳和基于重复序列的聚合酶链反应提供了可比的菌株区分与轻微的不一致分型鲍曼不动杆菌临床分离株从患者在我院和附属机构。分型揭示了一个集群应变与机构内和机构间的传播在研究期间。长期急性护理机构可能是水库。
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction provided comparable strain discrimination with minor discordance in typing Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates from patients at our hospital and affiliated institutions. Typing revealed a cluster strain with intrainstitutional and interinstitutional spread during the study period. A long- term acute care facility may have been the reservoir.
