Comparing core-genome MLST with PFGE and MLST for cluster analysis of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii

ABSTRACT: Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is a prevalent pathogen contributing to hospital infections. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and core-genome MLST (cgMLST) are frequently used methods to illuminate the nosocomial tr...
