Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To investigate the effect of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-loaded outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) in protecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa against imipenem treatment and its mechanism. METHODS: The OMVs of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia (CRKP) were isolated and purified from the supernatant of bacterial culture by using ultracentrifugation and Optiprep density gradient ultracentrifugation....
