31 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background: Emergence of carbapenems-resistantK. pneumoniaerepresents a serious challenge for antimicrobial therapy. Objective: The aim of this research is to determine different mechanisms mediating the emergence ofK. pneumoniaeisolates with high-level carbapenem resistance. Method: A total of 80K. pneumoniaeisolates were purified from sputum and urine specimens. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of...
