Abstract excerpt

The influence of temperature (ranging from 28 to 42 degrees C) was studied on the phenotypic expression of chromosomally mediated beta-lactamases in gram-negative clinical isolates and in their beta-lactamase-depressed resistant counterparts. The enzymes were expressed most intensely at lower tem...
