Co-Occurrence of Rare ArmA-, RmtB-, and KPC-2–Encoding Multidrug-Resistant Plasmids and Hypervirulence iuc Operon in ST11-KL47 Klebsiella pneumoniae

ABSTRACT The rapid emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and the comparatively limited development of new antibiotics pose a major threat to public health. Aminoglycosides are important options that can lower the mortality rate effectively in combination therapy with β-lacta...
