Association of two resistance mechanisms in a clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae with high-level resistance to imipenem
1 Jun 1991
Abstract excerpt
Carbapenem resistance was studied in a clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae, strain 201 (MIC of imipenem and meropenem, 16 micrograms/ml). This strain was analyzed comparatively with the carbapenem-susceptible parent strain 200, an equally susceptible revertant, 201-Rev, and in vitro-selected mutants with different levels of carbapenem resistance. All strains produced similarly high amounts of the same...
