Unusual association of NDM-1 with KPC-2 and armA among Brazilian Enterobacteriaceae isolates

We report the microbiological characterization of four New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (bla (NDM-1))-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. bla (NDM-1) was located on a conjugative plasmid and was associated with Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2 (bla (KPC-2)) or aminog...

description We report the microbiological characterization of four New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (bla (NDM-1))-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. bla (NDM-1) was located on a conjugative plasmid and was associated with Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2 (bla (KPC-2)) or aminoglycoside-resistance methylase (armA), a 16S rRNA methylase not previously reported in Brazil, in two distinct strains of Enterobacter cloacae. Our results suggested that the introduction of bla (NDM-1) in Brazil has been accompanied by rapid spread, since our isolates showed no genetic relationship.
