The study aimed to assess whether Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from different sources can be distinguished by the metabolomic fingerprint and to check whether antibiotic susceptibility distinctions are available through metabolomic analysis. 1H NMR spectroscopy analysis of the bacteria metabolites was performed. Twenty-nine strains were tested (18 isolated form cystic fibrosis patients and 11 environmental). Thirty-one metabolites were identified, 12 were up-regulated in strains from CF patients, while 2 were higher level in strains from the environment. Changed carbohydrate catabolic metabolism and the metabolic shift toward the utilization of amino acids is suggested in strains from CF patients.
