Carbapenemase gene amplification profile in K. pneumoniae using multiplex PCR. The PCR products were separated on a 2% agarose gel. A molecular size marker (in bp, measurements on the left, middle, and right) was used, featuring a reference band at 500 bp. No template control (NTC) was included. The specific lanes correspond to the following amplified genes: Lane 1 and 3 for blaOXA-48 (438 bp); Lane 2, 9, 11, 14 and 16 for blaNDM-1 (621 bp); Lane 5 for blaNDM-1 and blaKPC (621 and 798 bp); and Lane 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 13 and 15 for blaNDM-1 and blaOXA-48 (621 bp and 438 bp)
