Abstract

Importation of Fosfomycin Resistance fosA3 Gene to Europe.

Highlights

  • We thank military physicians who participated in malaria epidemiologic surveillance in French Guiana and France during 2008–2014, especially E. de Parseval, N

  • We investigated the occurrence and molecular features of 43 fosfomycin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates (21 E. coli, 21 Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 1 Morganella morganii)

  • KT832798 and KT832797, respectively), most of which were previously associated with fosfomycin resistance [8]. This isolate was detected in a urine sample from a 61-year-old man who had a clinical history of chronic prostatitis and was associated with a urinary tract infection (UTI) acquired after travel to Asia (China, Philippines). aac-6’-lb-cr, blaOXA-I, and rmtB
