Coproduction of KPC-2 and QnrB19 in Klebsiella pneumoniae ST340 isolate in Brazil.

Abstract:

:Few reports described the presence of bla(KPC) and qnr genes in the same isolate. This study reports the combination of bla(KPC-2) and qnrB19 genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae ST340 isolate in Brazil. These findings draw attention to this combination in ST340 isolate, which is part of the CC258, disseminated in Latin America.
