Fig. 3From: A prospective multicenter study on the evaluation of antimicrobial resistance and molecular epidemiology of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections in intensive care units with clinical and environmental featuresA cross-sectional example of PFGE dendogram representing the largest PFGE group (Group VI, n = 27). PFGE types; the strains having indistinguishable DNA band profile were clustered in the same PFGE types and labeled with a same number such as PFGE type 42 included 3 stains, any difference in PFGE patterns was defined as unique and labeled with different number. PFGE group VI included the strains having PFGE patterns that were similar to each other ≥ 85%Back to article page
