| Abstract |
Twenty two Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates resistant to various cephalosporins, cephamycins, and oxacephems, were identified in Japanese Red Cross Society Wakayama Medical Center between October 2007 and November 2008. All isolates carried blaCTX-M-9 and blaDHA. Antibiogram and the DiversiLab system for DNA fingerprinting revealed that these 22 K. pneumoniae strains originated from 6 clones, and that the 3 clones were spread in the hospital. |
