title: [Pyocin typing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains].
abstract: The possibility of using the typing of P. aeruginosa strains by their pyocins as one of the epidemiological markers in the study of P. aeruginosa hospital infections has been established. As this method of typing is characterized by certain variability, the authors propose that the method of the "cross analysis" of pyocins produced by P. aeruginosa strains be used simultaneously. This method is based on the following phenomenon: if the cultures to be compared are different, the pyocin produced by one strain suppresses the growth of the other one, and if the cultures are identical, no suppression of their growth by pyocins is observed.
