Abstract: OBJECTIVES We sequenced two IncA/C plasmids harbouring blaCTX-M-2 in Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates and compared their antibiotic resistance islands. METHODS Transconjugants were obtained from two clinical K. pneumoniae isolates harbouring blaCTX-M-2. Plasmid DNA from transconjugants… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.878912

Abstract: In Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), a wide repertoire of resistance genes is often carried within genomic resistance islands (RIs), particularly in high-risk global clones (GCs). As the first in Egypt, the current study aimed at… read more here.
