Diversity and Distribution of β-Lactamase Genes Circulating in Indian Isolates of Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
23 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) has gained prominence in the last two decades due to its global spread as a multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogen. Further, carbapenem-resistant Kp are emerging at an alarming rate. The objective of this study was (1) to evaluate the prevalence of β-lactamases, especially carbapenemases, in Kp isolates from India, and (2) determine the most prevalent sequence type (ST) and plasmids, and...
