Guillem Puigsech-Boixeda's dataset contains genomic and phenotypic data for 22 carbapenemase-producing bacterial isolates collected from March 2022 to July 2024. Whole-genome sequencing identified eight species, including Pseudomonas alloputida and Stutzerimonas chloritidismutans, and characterized their antimicrobial resistance profiles and plasmid-borne resistance genes. The data highlights the role of non-aeruginosa Pseudomonas and Stutzerimonas species as reservoirs for metallo-beta-lactamase genes.
Use Cases
- Analyzing species-level distribution of carbapenemase-producing bacteria based on the eight identified species
- Studying antimicrobial resistance patterns based on AST results showing resistance rates >55% to most tested antibiotics
- Investigating plasmid-mediated gene dissemination based on the seven distinct blaVIM-harboring plasmids detected
- Tracking clonal transmission networks based on the three predominant MLST clones identified
Strengths
- 22 isolates characterized with both whole-genome sequencing and antimicrobial susceptibility testing
- Data spans patient and environmental samples collected over a 2.5-year period from March 2022 to July 2024
- Results include specific resistance gene combinations (e.g., blaVIM-1+blaNDM-1) and plasmid types
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- The dataset is very small (26.2 KB), indicating limited scope
