Gram-negative bacteremia is a devastating public health threat, with high mortality in
vulnerable populations and significant costs to the global economy. Concerningly, rates of …

Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of foodborne pathogens has become an effective
method for investigating the information contained in the genome sequence of bacterial …

Abstract Background The incidence of Gram-negative bloodstream infections (BSIs),
predominantly caused by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species, continues to increase; …

Increasing occurrence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and hypervirulent (hv) Klebsiella
pneumoniae (MDR-hvKp) convergent clones is being observed. Those strains have the …

The recently emerged plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance gene tet (X4) has mainly
been detected in Escherichia coli but never in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Herein, we identified …

Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most common Gram-negative bacilli isolated from
bloodstream infections worldwide, and recently an increased rate of carbapenem resistance …

Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) can cause hospital-and community acquired infections.
Although, Kp is widespread in the environment, very little is known about the genetic …

The emergence of carbapenem-resistant, hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae is a new
threat to health care. We studied the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant …

Background Infections caused by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE)
have continually grown as a global public health threat, with significant mortality rates …

Whole-genome sequence (WGS) analyses were employed to investigate the genomic
epidemiology of extensively drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, focusing on the …
