Özet

This study aimed to molecularly identify carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains isolated from clinical samples and to determine antibiotic resistance genes. Only carbapenem-resistant strains were included in our study. Of the 35 CRKP strains, 18 (51.4%) were extensive drug, 11 (31.4%) were multi-drug, and 6 (17.1%) were pan-drug resistances. PCR amplification revealed that 25% of the strains carried the OXA-51, 20% the OXA48, and %5 the OXA23 genes. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis based on seven house-keeping genes revealed sequence type 39. The capsule and O-antigen types were determined as KL103 and O2a, respectively. WGS analysis revealed the existence of (3-lactamase, aminoglycoside, sulfonamide, Phenicol, and Fosfomycinresistant genes. While the K. pneumoniae OmpK37 gene was detected in all 3 strains, the OmpK36 gene was detected only in the CRSU20 strain. This study is important as it is the first study to perform molecular analysis of CRKP strains from Siirt, T & uuml;rkiye.
