Distribution of β-Lactamase Genes and Genetic Context of blaKPC-2 in Clinical Carbapenemase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates
1 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Background: This study was designed to characterize the dissemination mechanism and genetic context of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) genes in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) isolates. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on CRKP strains isolated from a teaching hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during 2015– 2017. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based amplification and...
