Dissemination in distinct Brazilian regions of an epidemiccarbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing SPM metallo- -lactamase

1 Sept 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In Brazil, carbapenem use has been limited by high carbapenem-resistance rates among Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. OBJECTIVE: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of an epidemic P. aeruginosa strain in unrelated Brazilian hospitals. We also aimed to search for the gene blaSPM, which encodes production of SPM, a novel metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL). METHODS: A reference broth...
