Investigation on the mechanisms of carbapenem resistance among the non-carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
18 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
Background: (NC-CRKP) has been observed over the years. Previously, four NC-CRKP with increased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin in the presence of phenylalanine-arginine β-naphthylamide (PAβN) were identified. However, no contribution of the PAβN-inhibited efflux pump to carbapenem resistance was observed. All four NC-CRKP harboured non-carbapenemase β-lactamase, with two also exhibiting porin loss. In this...
