Abstract excerpt

This study characterizes KPC-2 producing Klebsiella pneumoniae belonging to ST101. Whole genome sequencing using the Ion Torrent PGM platform with 400 bp chemistry was performed. blaKPC-2 was found on an IncFIIK plasmid associated with ISKpn6 and ISKpn7 without Tn4401. This is the first report of KPC-2 K. pneumoniae from bacteremia in India. The isolate also coded for other resistance genes such as aadA1, aadA2,...
