Oxacillinase-181 Carbapenemase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Ghana, 2017–2019 [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We sequenced 29 carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from a neonatal intensive care unit in Ghana. Twenty-eight isolates were sequence type 17 with blaOXA-181 and differed by 0–32 single-nucleotide polymorphisms.

Epidemiology of Carbapenemase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in a Hospital, Portugal [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We aimed to provide updated epidemiologic data on carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in Portugal by characterizing all isolates (N = 46) recovered during 2013–2018 in a 123-bed hospital in Lisbon.

Characterization of the First Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudocitrobacter faecalis Harboring bla_OXA-181 in China. [PDF]

Antibiotics (Basel), 2022
With the wide use of carbapenems, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales have been increasingly reported worldwide. In this study, one blaOXA-181-positive Pseudocitrobacter faecalis strain was isolated from the blood culture of a patient with a bloodstream infection in China, which was its first clinical report outside Pakistan.

Emergence of bla_OXA-181-bearing tigecycline-resistant Klebsiella aerogenes in China. [PDF]

Braz J Microbiol
We report the isolation of a blaOXA-181-positive, tigecycline-resistant Klebsiella aerogenes strain KA04 from a Chinese inpatient's fecal sample. Species identification was performed using MALDI-TOF MS. The antibiotic susceptibilities were assessed via the broth microdilution method. To elucidate the transmission and genetic structure of the blaOXA-181

Freshwater snail faecal metagenomes reveal environmental reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance genes across two continents. [PDF]

Microb Genom
The transfer of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) from environmental microbes to pathogens is a critical but underexplored One Health driver of antimicrobial resistance. Here, we evaluate freshwater snails, which are geographically widespread aquatic
