Draft Genome Sequence of Singapore Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae Isolate DS32358_14, Which Contains the Carbapenemase Gene blaVIM-1
We sequenced the first blaVIM-1-positive Klebsiella pneumoniae strain isolated in Singapore. The isolate belongs to multilocus sequence type 2542 (ST2542), and blaVIM-1 was the first gene in an integron that also contained aacA4, aphA15, aadA1, catB2, qacEdelta1, and sul1.
متن کاملOutbreak caused by a multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clone carrying blaVIM-12 in a university hospital.
From November 2006 to April 2007, nine nonrepetitive isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae with reduced susceptibility or resistance to carbapenems were recovered from clinical specimens from separate patients hospitalized in a tertiary care hospital. The imipenem-EDTA synergy test was positive for all isolates. PCR, sequencing, and transferability experiments revealed the novel bla(VIM-12) metallo...
متن کاملActivity of Plazomicin (ACHN-490) against MDR clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter spp. from Athens, Greece
The in vitro activity of plazomicin was evaluated against 300 multidrug resistant (MDR) (carbapenemase and/or ESBL-producing) isolates from four hospitals in Athens, an area where carbapenemase-producing organisms are endemic. Most of the isolates were also resistant to the legacy aminoglycosides with the MIC₅₀/MIC₉₀ to tobramycin, amikacin and gentamicin being 32/>32, 32/>32 and 4/>8 μg/ml, re...
متن کاملFirst outbreak of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae carrying blaVIM-1 and blaSHV-5 in a French university hospital.
OBJECTIVES We studied eight imipenem-resistant isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae involved in an outbreak in a French teaching hospital. METHODS The eight isolates were recovered from clinical specimens or rectal swabs. Antibiotic susceptibilities were determined using standard agar diffusion and dilution methods including synergy tests. PFGE was used to study the relatedness of isolates. Gene...
