Phenotypic and Genotypic Features of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Harboring Carbapenemases in Egypt: OXA-48-Like Carbapenemases as an Investigated Model

Phenotypic and Genotypic Features of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Harboring Carbapenemases in Egypt: OXA-48-Like Carbapenemases as an Investigated Model

This study aimed at the characterization of carbapenem-resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> isolates focusing on typing of the <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-48-like</sub> genes. Additionally, the correlation between the resistance pattern and biofilm formation capacity of...
