Clonal relatedness of all investigated 71 enterococcal isolates as based onSmaImacrorestriction analysis in PFGE and subsequent phylogenetic analysis (Dice co-efficient using UPGMA clustering; BioNumerics v 6.5; settings: optimization 0.5%; tolerance 1.0%). An 80% similarity line (dashed line) divides the group of the 56 related ST192 vanB-type outbreak isolates (above the horizontal dotted line) from the other 15 “non-outbreak” strains (below the dotted line). Legend: MIC VAN represents the MICs determined in microdilution in cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth; Etest VAN is the value after 24 h readout on MH agar and using McFarland 0.5; n.d., not determined; ST-NEW represents a previously unrecognised MLST type with the pattern [9-1-1-1-12-7-1] which is a single locus variant of ST80.
