Emergence of a Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate Co-harbouring Dual blaNDM– 6-Carrying Plasmids in China

The widespread emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) with limited therapeutic options has become a global concern. In this study, a K. pneumoniae strain called KP2e was recovered from a human case of fatal septic shock in a Chinese hospital. Polymerase chain reaction and seq...
