Comprehensive investigation of antibiotic resistance gene content in cfiA-harboring Bacteroides fragilis isolates of human and animal origins by whole genome sequencing
1 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The emergence of multidrug resistance in Bacteroides fragilis, especially the phylogenetic lineage carrying the carbapenemase gene cfiA, represents an increasing threat to human health. However, knowledge on the diversity of the multidrug-resistant strains and the genetic elements carrying the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) remains limited. AIM: The objective of the study was to describe the...
