Abstract

The aim of this study was to characterize the population structure of 56 OXA-48-like-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates, as well as extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase genes, recovered in 2014 and 2015 from 16 hospitals in southern Spain. XbaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and multilocus sequence typing were performed to assess clonal relatedness.
