Abstract:
Objective To explore the molecular mechanisms of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.Methods Carba NP confirmatory test were used to detect carbapenemases.Carbapenemase genes,ESBL genes and plasmid-mediated AmpC genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The genetic correlation analysis was carried out by using multiple sequence type (MLST).Results 42 out of the 50 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were KPC-2-positive strains,1 strain was positive for NDM-1,the other 7 strains were not detected for any carbapenemase genes.The percentages of KPC-2-positive Klebsiella pneumoniae with the bla CTX-M,bla SHV,bla TEM,bla DHA were 21.5 %,42.9 %,69.1% and 4.8% respectively.The results of MLST showed that 37 out of 42 KPC-2 positive strains were ST11.Conclusion The production of KPC-2 is the main mechanism of Klebsiella pneumoniae resistance to carbapenem and there is an outbreak of ST11 KPC-2 Klebsiella pneumoniae in this hospital.
