Molecular Fingerprinting of Mycobacterium abscessus Strains in a Cohort of Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Forty-one Mycobacterium abscessus complex isolates from 17 pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) patients were typed using a novel variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) scheme and an automated repetitive-PCR (rep-PCR) system.
