Providencia rettgeri strains isolated in clinical sample from patients in Brazil carry the blaNDM and blaTEM genes and present different efflux pumps for antimicrobial drugs

Providencia rettgeri is considered an emerging pathogen, associated with nosocomial infections. The objective of this study was to analyze molecular features for antimicrobial resistance of the P. rettgeri strains isolated from clinical samples and to perform a genomic characterization of the P. rettgeri PR02 strain
