“…calcoaceticus complex by amplification of bla OXA-51-like -lactamase genes and by amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA) with the restriction enzymes AluI, HinfI, HhaI, RsaI, MboI, and MspI (12,13). The presence of tetracycline resistance genes in 89 singlepatient isolates was determined by PCR amplification for the tetA, tetB, tetH, tetL, tetM, tetA(39), and tetA(41) genes with previously published primer sequences by previously described methods (1,8,11). Data were analyzed according to susceptibility phenotype, PFGE type, and Acinetobacter species as determined by ARDRA.…”
