Abstract
Forty Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, previously characterized by puls ed-field gel electrophoresis, were ribotyped with EcoRI, BamHI, ClaI, and PvuII. Ribotyping with PvuII proved to be as discriminatory as pul sed-field gel electrophoresis with XbaI or DraI while EcoRI and BamHI were not, ClaI contributed further ribotypes, some of which might be d ue to a transposable element.
