Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Carbapenems are the antibiotics of choice to treat infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii, and resistance to this class can be determined by loss of membrane permeability and enzymatic mechanisms. Here, we analyzed the basis of carbapenem resistance in clinical A. baumannii isolates from different Brazilian regions. RESULTS: The analyses addressed the carbapenemase activity of OXA-23, CarO...
