GENETIC TESTING FOR PREDICTING RESISTANCE OF KLEBSIELLA SPECIES AGAINST ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS

The invention relates to a method of determining an infection of a patient with Klebsiella species potentially resistant to antimicrobial drug treatment by detecting mutations in the genes, parC, KPN 01607, gyrA, KPN 02451, baeR, aceF, ybgH, ynjE, KPN 01951, KPN 01961, KPN 02114, mhpA, KPN 02128, KP...

In an exemplary method, a sample is used for molecular testing and then a molecular fingerprint is taken. The result is then compared to a reference library and the result is reported.
