Rapid detection of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is essential for effective clinical management and surveillance. This study investigated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as phenotypic biomarkers of carbapenem resistance, with the goal of developing a translationally...
Introduction: The degree of antimicrobial resistance demonstrated by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) represents a growing public health challenge. Conventional methods for detecting CPE involve culture-based techniques with lengthy incubation steps. There is a ne...
