A total of 954 clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were typed by their ability to produce pyocines. The strains of Pseudomonas were isolated from urines, bloods, sputa, stools, and miscellaneous infectious exudates or tissue of patients of the Mayo Clinic and four associated hospitals. About 80% of the typable strains could be grouped into three major pyocine types: A (30.9%), B (34.8%), and D (14.1%). These large groups could be divided into subtypes by using additional indicator strains. There was no significant difference in the distribution of types by either institutional or specimen source, except that urine specimens yielded the highest percentage of one type. By this procedure, 93% of all isolates could be typed. Repeated typing of serially transferred strains indicated that the procedure has a high degree of reliability. Several strains exhibited extreme fluctuation in inhibition pattern. The procedure is a simple and reliable method to monitor the patterns of nosocomial infections due to P. aeruginosa.
