Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To characterize carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii carrying blaOXA-23 genes within the Tn2006 transposon using metagenomic and whole-genome sequencing, focusing on their genetic features, antimicrobial resistance, and potential for clonal spread and horizontal gene transfer among intensive care unit (ICU) patients. METHODS: Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples from 28 ICU patients were analysed...
