Nosocomial outbreak of nitrate-negative Serratia marcescens infections.

P J Geiseler, B Harris, B R Andersen.   

Abstract

Bacteremia due to multiply-antibiotic-resistant Serratia marcescens occurred within 1 week in four patients who were in adjacent beds in an intensive care unit. The strains were serotyped as O14:H12 and were nitrate negative. This unusual biochemical marker was useful in the investigation of the outbreak.
