MBL-positive isolates were given consecutive numbers with the prefix M. DiversiLab repPCR cluster and PFGE types were given numbers and letters, respectively, with an acronym of the species. M0 (73-5671) was collected in 2002 and blaGIM-1 was described by Castanheira et al. (5) on a 22-kb plasmid, while we detected it chromosomally. *, integron sequences were published in GenBank (JX566704 to JX566715) and given INTEGRALL numbers as shown (In77b being a variant of In77). SICU, surgical intensive care unit; MICU, medical intensive care unit; SW, surgical ward; MW, medical ward (numbers indicate different wards); ND, not determined (M28 and M16 strains lost for further analysis); C, chromosome; P, plasmid.
