Comparison of multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis typing of carbapenemases producing Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from burn patients

Highlights • This study is a molecular epidemiology in carbapenemase producing Acinetobacter baumannii. • PFGE and MLVA were used for molecular typing. • The discriminatory of PFGE and MLVA were compared in this study. • According our results PFGE showed more powerful discriminatory achievement....
