bla KPC-2 overexpression and bla GES-5 carriage as major imipenem/relebactam resistance mechanisms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa high-risk clones ST463 and ST235, respectively, in China

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas aeruginosa high-risk clones pose severe threats to public health. Here, we characterize the imipenem/relebactam (IR) resistance mechanisms in P. aeruginosa high-risk clones sequence type 235 (ST235) and ST463 in China. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined, and Illumina short-read sequencing was performed for 1,168 clinical carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa (CRPA)...
