title: [Occurrence of species from Acinetobacter genus in clinical material and other sources].
abstract: The analysis regarded 304 strains of Acinetobacter genus isolated from various diagnostic materials, objects from hospital environment and from non-hospital sources (soil, water, various animals). Applying API ZONE system, five species were isolated: Acinetobacter juni, (18.42%), Acinetobacter baumanii (70.39%), Acinetobacter haemolyticus (5.59%), Acinetobacter lwoffii (4.6%) and Acinetobacter johnsonii (0.99%). Most frequently isolated species were present in purulent materials and in samples from respiratory tract infections and urinary tract infections. Over 47% Acinetobacter species strains were present in clinical material as single aerobic bacteria.
