Emergence of a Salmonella Rissen ST469 clinical isolate carrying bla _NDM-13 in China.

ABSTRACT: New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-13 (NDM-13) is an NDM variant that was first identified in 2015 and has not been detected in Salmonella species prior to this study. Here we describe the first identification of a Salmonella Rissen strain SR33 carrying bla _NDM-13. The aim of this study was to molecularly characterize SR33's antimicrobial resistance and virulence features as well as investigate the genetic environment of bla _NDM-13. The Salmonella Rissen SR33 strain was isolated from a patient with fever and diarrhea. SR33 belonged to ST469, and it was found to be multidrug-resistant (MDR) and to carry many virulence genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that SR33 shared a close relationship with most of the Chinese S. Rissen ST469 s
