Association of blaNDM-1 with blaKPC-2 and aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme genes among Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis and Serratia marcescens clinical isolates in Brazil

Abstract excerpt

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales are frequently involved in healthcare-associated infections worldwide. The objectives of this study were to investigate (i) the frequency of the main genes encoding carbapenemases, 16S rRNA methylases and aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AMEs) as well as the mcr gene and (ii) the clonal relationship of enterobacteria isolates resistant to carbapenems and aminoglycosides...
