Use of Etest MBL strips for the detection of carbapenemases in Acinetobacter baumannii

26 Jul 2005

Abstract excerpt

Sir, In2002,wesawtheemergenceofcarbapenemresistanceinclinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from patients at two local hospitals, Groote Schuur Hospital (GSH) and Tygerberg Hospital (TH), Western Cape, South Africa. The high levels of imipenem (16–256 mg/L) and meropenem (>32 mg/L) resistance observed in these A. baumannii isolates suggested the presence of a metallo-b-lactamase (MBL) or an...
