Abstract
Class D β-lactamases OXA-232 and OXA-48 hydrolyze penicillin, cephalosporins and carbapenems, limiting the pharmacological therapeutics in bacteraemia. OXA producer microorganisms are considered a great emergent threat, especially in nosocomial environments. To determine the resistance profile and genomic characterization of two isolates initially identified as potential carbapenemase-producer Klebsiella oxytoca in a third level hospital. Automated platform BD Phoenix-100 System was used to identify and to biochemically characterize both isolates. Furthermore, the resistance profile was determined through CLSI methods and the whole genome sequences were obtained using Next-Generation Sequencing. Resistance genes were analyzed, and the virtual fingerprinting was determined to corroborate the similarity with related bacteria. Both strains correspond to Raoultella ornithinolytica carrying OXA 232 and OXA-48 genes, confirming the class D β-lactamases assay results. Here, we present the genetic and phenotypic analysis of multidrug resistance R. ornithinolytica, representing the first report in Mexico.
