Epidemiological and Genetic Characteristics of Clinical Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains in Guangdong Province, China

ABSTRACT Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) is a bacterial pathogen that may cause serious drug-resistant infections that are potentially fatal. To investigate the genetic characteristics of these organisms, we tested 416 P. aeruginosa strains recovered from 12 types of clinical samp...
