Detection of Possible Resistance Mechanisms in Uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> Strains Isolated from Kidney Transplant Recipients Based on Whole Genome Sequencing

Detection of Possible Resistance Mechanisms in Uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> Strains Isolated from Kidney Transplant Recipients Based on Whole Genome Sequencing

Background: Urinary tract infections are a global health concern, with uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (UPEC) accounting for 80–90% of cases. Given the rise in antimicrobial resistance, our aim was to elucidate the genetic mechanisms behind low-level resistance to ciprofloxacin and...
