Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the emergence of cefiderocol resistance in a clinical Klebsiella oxytoca isolate and to identify the underlying mechanism. METHODS: A clinical isolate of K. oxytoca susceptible to cefiderocol was exposed to stepwise increasing cefiderocol concentrations via broth microdilution in iron-depleted CAMHB (ID-CAMHB) to select spontaneous mutants. WGS identified potential resistance-associated...
