Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii, a nivel mundial es considerado un microorganismo oportunista presente en varios casos de infecciones intrahospitalarias. En el Hospital de Obrajes, de la Caja Petrolera de Salud, realizaron el aislamiento de 4 cepas de Acinetobacter baumannii en diferentes pacientes y diferentes salas, confirmado mediante pruebas bioquímicas. Luego, se utilizó la técnica de PFGE para la identificación de huellas digitales genómicas utilizando enzima de restricción Apa I.
