Abstract excerpt
Determinants of resistance of imipenem can be, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains resistant to this drug, transferred by transduction with wild-type phages as well as mobilized for conjugal transfer, as demonstrated by the indirect selection procedure. Exconjugants obtained in the latter type of experiments do not transfer imipenem resistance determinant to further recipient strains(s) by conjugation. Mobilized...
