Klebsiella pneumoniae ST147 harboring blaNDM-1, multidrug resistance and hypervirulence plasmids
ABSTRACTThe spread of hypervirulent (hv) and carbapenem-/multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is an emerging problem in healthcare settings. The New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (blaNDM-1) is found in Enterobacteriaceae including K. pneumoniae. The blaNDM-1 is capable of hydrolyzing β-lactam ant...
