of clinical (n= 13) and environmental (n= 7) Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were …

In this study a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Acinetobacter baumannii was
developed and evaluated by using 40 clinical A. baumannii isolates recovered from …

A set of 18 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates, collected prospectively in a Bulgarian hospital
during episodes of increased A. baumannii occurrence during 2000–2002, was investigated …

Background The presence of clinical Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) isolates with
differing antibiotic resistance phenotypes in the same patient causes difficulties and …

Thirty-one Acinetobacter baumannii strains, comprising 14 strains from 14 outbreaks in
different northwestern European cities and 17 sporadic strains, were compared by …

Members of the genus Acinetobacter are ubiquitous in soil and water and are an important
