KPC-2 producing ST101 Klebsiella pneumoniae from bloodstream infection in India

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2018
This study characterizes KPC-2 producing Klebsiella pneumoniae belonging to ST101. Whole genome sequencing using the Ion Torrent PGM platform with 400 bp chemistry was performed. blaKPC-2 was found on an IncFIIK plasmid associated with ISKpn6 and ISKpn7 without Tn4401. This is the first report of KPC-2 K. pneumoniae from bacteremia in India.

Emergence of Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates producing KPC-2 carbapenemase in Cuba

New Microbes and New Infections, 2014
The emergence of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing carbapenemase (KPC) has now become a global concern. As a part of a nationwide multicentre surveillance study in Cuba, three K. pneumoniae clinical isolates resistant to carbapenems were detected for a 1-month period (September to October 2011).
