Plasmid profile of CR-KP and CS-KP isolates. a Agarose gel electrophoresis of K. pneumoniae plasmid DNA, and b Southern blot hybridization using a bla OXA-48 specific probe. Arrows show the presence of a ~70 kb OXA-48-containing plasmid in the CR-KP samples. Lane 1: CECT 678 (54.38 kb, 7.30 kb, 5.56 kb, 5.14 kb, 3.98 kb, 3.08 kb, 2.71 kb, and 2.06 kb plasmids); Lane 2: CECT 679 (154 kb, 66.2 kb, 37.6 kb, and 7.4 kb plasmids); and Lane 7: Low range ladder as controls. Lanes 3 and 5: CR-KP clinical isolates. Lanes 4 and 6: CS-KP clinical isolates. Lane 8: Positive control K. pneumoniae strain (K. pneumoniae 7680)
