Figure 1 Representative PFGE gel and dendrogram of similarity between representative isolates from the present study and carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa strains isolated previously in different Greek hospitals. Serotypes are shown in italics next to the isolate numbers. PFGE types (clusters I, III, IV, or unique) are shown to the right. Asterisks denote isolates from Tassias et al. [18].
