PFGE banding patterns of six clusters (clusters A to F) of B. cepacia complex isolates recovered from CF patients at the UNC Hospitals CF center. The cluster C gel contains a B. multivorans strain designated 23 for purposes of comparison. The cluster E gel contains the Toronto strain, designated ET, and a cblA+ genomovar III strain, designated 21, for the purposes of comparison. Numbers on the left are molecular weights.

Time line graph showing the hospitalization course of patients (Pt.) 11 to 14. Horizontal bars represent inpatient status, with the admission date given at the beginning of the bars and the discharge date given at the ends. Vertical bars represent dates of concurrent admission resulting in possible cross infection. #, +, and ∗, the dates that patients 12, 13, and 14, respectively, first became positive for B. multivorans infection (see text).
