Isolation of an Extensively Drug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoS+/O4 Strain Belonging to the “High-Risk” Clone ST654 and Coproducer of NDM-1 and the Novel VIM-80

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the genomic features of an extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate (P-469) emerging in Chile. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion and “colistin agar” test. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed by...
