Abstract

In this study, the BOX-PCR fingerprinting technique was evaluated for the discrimination of clinical
Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. All isolates were typeable and nearly half showed unique banding patterns.
According to our results, BOX-PCR fingerprinting is applicable for typing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates
and can be considered a useful complementary tool for epidemiological studies of members of this genus.
