II Spanish Multicenter Study. GEIH-REIPI Acinetobacter baumannii 2000-2010

We studied eighteen genetically related clinical strains of A. baumannii (ST2) indicated by Multilocus Sequence Typing, MLST) isolated from patients in the same ICU of a Spanish hospital, in 2000(Ab_GEIH-2000 group of strains) and 2010 (Ab_GEIH-2010 group of strains) (PRJNA308422 as Bioproject Acc.Number in NCBI server). The strains were identified during the II Spanish Multicentre Study (GEIH-REIPI Acinetobacter baumannii 2000-2010) in which 654 strains of A.baumannii were isolated in 42 participating hospitals.
