Abstract excerpt
Resistance mechanisms in a group of carbapenemase-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa that were susceptible to all antibiotics except carbapenems (carbapenem resistance-only P. aeruginosa [CROPA]) were studied. Ten genetically nonrelated CROPA isolates and their carbapenem-susceptible counterparts were further investigated. OprD production was demonstrated by protein electrophoresis in only 1 of the 10...
