Within-Host Genotypic and Phenotypic Diversity of Contemporaneous Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from Blood Cultures of Patients with Bacteremia

Within-Host Genotypic and Phenotypic Diversity of Contemporaneous Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from Blood Cultures of Patients with Bacteremia

ABSTRACT It is unknown whether bacterial bloodstream infections (BSIs) are commonly caused by single organisms or mixed microbial populations. We hypothesized that contemporaneous carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains from blood cultures of individual patients are genetically and...
