In this study the antibiotic susceptibility pattern and bla genes were characterized in Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates that fingerprinted by rep-PCR and PFGE methods at Kurdistan Province, Iran. A total of 70 K. pneumoniae were isolated from clinical samples to detect the antimicrobial susceptibility, carbapenemase and MBL-producing isolates. The PCR assay was used to identify the bla genes. Isolates were typed by PFGE and Rep-PCR methods. The highest and lowest rates of resistance were observed in cefotaxime (67.1%) and imipenem (8.6%), respectively. The rate of blaNDM-1 and blaOXA-48 genes were 1 (1.4%) and 14 (20%) isolates, respectively. All were classified in 27 clusters by rep-PCR and 39 PFGE types. The low frequency of carbapenemase and MBL genes in this study are epidemiologically important.
