Phenotypic and Genomic Characterization of Nine String-Positive Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates from Israel

A positive “string test” indicates the ability of bacterial colonies grown on agar plates to form viscous strings of >5 mm when stretched. This phenotype is strongly associated with hypervirulence in Klebsiella pneumoniae but has never been described in carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumanni...
