Rapid Discrimination of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> ST175 Isolates Involved in a Nosocomial Outbreak Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and FTIR Spectroscopy Coupled with Machine Learning

<div>Dendrogram obtained by IR Biotyper for <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> isolates analyzed in the lipids region (1,400–1,500 and 2,800–3,000 cm<sup>−1</sup>). Hierarchical cluster analysis with Euclidean distance and ward metric was performed. ST, sequence type; PFGE, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; WGS, whole-genome sequencing.</div>
