Characterization of the two tandem repeats for the KPC-2 core structures on a plasmid from hospital-derived Klebsiella pneumoniae
Antimicrobial susceptibility test, enzymatic property, and transferrable feature The 16S rRNA sequence and species identification of strain F94 as Klebsiella pneumoniae were confirmed using BLAST and average nucleotide homology analysis of the genomic sequence. Results for the drug-susceptibility test of F94 strain were shown in Table 1. In particular, the…
Genomic characteristics of a multidrug-resistant E. coli
Introduction Escherichia coli, a member of the Enterobacterales family, is a common opportunistic pathogen that can cause various infectious illnesses, including urinary tract infections (UTIs) and other infections acquired in the community.1,2 The presence of carbapenemases in E. coli poses a serious threat to public health. These carbapenemase genes may…
Plasmid-Encoded VIM-2-pProducing Pseudomonas stutzeri | IDR
Introduction Pseudomonas stutzeri is an aerobic, nonfermenting, active, Gram-negative oxidase-positive bacterium with unique colony morphology.1,2 Burri and Stutzer first described it in 1985,3 and the specific metabolic properties, such as denitrification, degradation of aromatic compounds, and nitrogen fixation, distinguish it from other pseudomonads species.2,4 Historically, P. stutzeri was not commonly…
