Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: K. pneumoniae is a common cause of severe hospital-acquired infections. In the present study, we have characterised the whole-genome of two K. pneumoniae ST437 belonging to the clonal complex CC258. METHODS: The whole-genome sequencing was performed by MiSeq Illumina, with a 2 × 300bp paired-end run. ResFinder 4.4.2 was used to detect acquired antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) and chromosomal...
