Emergence and Polyclonal Dissemination of <i>bla</i><sub>NDM-7</sub>–Carrying InX3 Plasmid in <i>Enterobacter cloacae</i> Complex, France, 2021–2023
Among 3,367 New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales isolates collected in France during 2021-2023, we found the bla<sub>NDM-7</sub> gene systematically localized on 2 closely related InX3 plasmids known to harbor antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors. Enhanced surveillance to monitor spread of antimicrobial resistance is needed among New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales.
