Mobile element-mediated carbapenem resistance in <i>Enterobacter hormaechei</i> in a Nigerian intensive care unit

2026-04-10

Abstract excerpt

Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria pose a critical public health threat. The role of mobile genetic elements in driving their transmission and persistence remains poorly defined. In 2022, we investigated a suspected outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) in a Nigerian adult intensive care unit (ICU), using short-read whole genome sequencing (WGS) of carbapenem-resistant clinical...
