Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in Switzerland: human and non-human settings may share high-risk clones
24 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
The spread of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CP-Kp) strains belonging to high-risk sequence types (STs) is a concern. For Switzerland, national data about the molecular features (especially the STs) of CP-Kp of human origin is not available. In veterinary clinics, ST11 and ST307 blaOXA-48-possessing K. pneumoniae strains have been recently reported. We analysed a collection of 285 K. pneumoniae...
