A multispecies outbreak of carbapenem-resistant bacteria harboring the blaKPC gene in a non-classical transposon element

9 Apr 2021

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Background Klebsiella pneumoniae is the most frequent KPC-producing bacteria. The blaKPC gene is frequently embedded in Tn4401 transposon, and less frequently in non-Tn4401 elements (NTEKPC) variants I-III. The first case of KPC in the UC-CHRISTUS Clinical Hospital was detected in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Soon after this event, KPC was detected in 2 additional Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 3 Escherichia coli, 3...
