Abstrakt: ABSTRACTThe association of O-antigen serotypes with type III secretory toxins was analyzed in 99 clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Isolates secreting ExoU were frequently serotyped as O11, but none were serotype O1. Most of the isolates that were nontypeable for O antigen did not secrete type III secretory toxins.
