Research Article: Genomic characterization of carbapenem and colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from humans and dogs
Abstract:
Introduction: Carbapenem and colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, including Klebsiella pneumoniae, have become a growing global concern, posing a significant threat to public health. Currently, there is limited information about the genetic background of carbapenem and colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae isolates infecting humans and dogs in Thailand. This study aimed to characterize carbapenem and colistin-resistant genes in six resistant K. pneumoniae clinical isolates (three from humans and three from dogs) which differed in their pulse field gel electrophoresis profiles.
