Rectal Carriage of Sequence Type 307 Klebsiella pneumoniae High‐Risk Clone Harboring Multiple Carbapenemase Genes in Community Hospitals Gauteng, South Africa [PDF]
Asymptomatic rectal carriers are recognized as reservoirs of carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKp), which can spread epidemic high‐risk clones [e.g., sequence types (ST)‐307] and plasmids [incompatibility group (Inc)‐X3] in hospitals, with ...

Emergence of Salmonella enterica carrying blaOXA-181 carbapenemase gene, Italy, 2021 to 2024 [PDF]
Between 2021 and 2024, we detected carbapenemase gene blaOXA-181 in 16 of 11,398 Salmonella enterica (SE) isolates: 10 SE 1,4,[5],12:i:-, three Bovismorbificans, two London and one Rissen from pigs, humans, pork meat and wild roe deer. The gene was first

blaOXA-181–positiveKlebsiella pneumoniae, Singapore
To the Editor: Nordmann et al. (1) raised concern over the global spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. In their article, they called attention to the oxacillinase-48 (OXA-48) type carbapenemases because bacteria that produce these enzymes do not have a distinctive antimicrobial drug susceptibility profile, and there is less awareness ...

Occurrence and characteristics of blaOXA-181-carrying Klebsiella aerogenes from swine in China
: Objectives: Klebsiella aerogenes is a largely understudied opportunistic pathogen that can cause sepsis and lead to high mortality rates. In this study, we reported the occurrence of carbapenem-resistant blaOXA-181-carrying Klebsiella aerogenes from ...

Molecular characterisation and epidemiological investigation of an outbreak of blaOXA-181 carbapenemaseproducing isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae in South Africa [PDF]
Background. Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen often associated with nosocomial infections. A suspected outbreak of K. pneumoniae isolates, exhibiting reduced susceptibility to carbapenem antibiotics, was detected during the month of ...
