IS26-Mediated Transfer of blaNDM–1 as the Main Route of Resistance Transmission During a Polyclonal, Multispecies Outbreak in a German Hospital
One of the most demanding challenges in infection control is the worldwide dissemination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in clinical settings. Especially the increasing prevalence of carbapenemase producing Gram-negative pathogens poses an urgent threat to public health, as these enzymes confe...
