DOI: 10.1089/mdr.2021.0307
Abstract: Reports on multidrug-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-hvKP) in recent years indicate the wide-spreading trend of MDR-hvKP. The co-occurrence of hypervirulence and drug resistance poses a great challenge to clinical treatment. In this study, molecular characteristics… read more here.
