Emergence of IMP-8-Producing Comamonas thiooxydans Causing Urinary Tract Infection in China

The emergence of carbapenem resistance (CR) caused by hydrolytic enzymes called carbapenemases has become a major concern worldwide. So far, CR genes have been widely detected in various bacteria. However, there is no report of CR gene harboring Comamonas thiooxydans. We first isolated a strain of a...
