The DNAs of 3* vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates from five hospitals in three states were analyzed by contour-clamped homogeneous electric field electrophoresis and plasmid analysis. There were 22 strain types. One strain type was common to patients in three hospitals in two states. These results suggest the apparent intra- and interhospital spread of vancomycin-resistant E. faecium.
通过轮廓夹恒定电场电泳和质粒分析,对来自三个州五家医院的3株耐万古霉素屎肠球菌分离株的DNA进行了分析。共有22种菌株类型。有一种菌株类型在两个州的三家医院的患者中都有出现。这些结果表明耐万古霉素屎肠球菌在医院内和医院间有明显传播。
