Characterization of bla OXA-232 carrying carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) & their expression profiles under selective carbapenem pressure: An in-depth study from India

Abstract excerpt

Background & objectives OXA-232 is a five amino acid substitution variant of OXA-48 and is reported in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), which is associated with nosocomial infections among immunocompromised patients in the intensive care unit. This study aimed to characterise blaOXA-232 in CRKP of clinical origin and investigate its transcriptional response against sub-inhibitory levels of...
