In vitro selection of aztreonam/avibactam resistance in dual-carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae
16 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To examine the in vitro selection of aztreonam/avibactam resistance among MBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and to understand the mechanism of increased resistance. METHODS: The MICs of aztreonam were determined with and without avibactam (4 mg/L) using a broth microdilution method. Single-step and multi-step mutant selection was conducted on five MBL-producing K. pneumoniae strains, including two...
