Diverse Sequence Types of Klebsiella pneumoniae Contribute to the Dissemination of <i>bla</i> <sub>NDM-1</sub> in India, Sweden, and the United Kingdom
22 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
Clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing NDM-1 carbapenemase from India (n = 22), the United Kingdom (n = 13), and Sweden (n = 4) were subjected to multilocus sequence typing (MLST), automated repetitive sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR), serotyping, virulence gene screening, and plasmid replicon typing. The most frequently detected MLST sequence types (STs) were ST14 (n = 13; all serotype K2), ST11,...
