12 Jul 2021
Abstract excerpt
Cefiderocol (FDC) is a recently developed siderophore cephalosporin showing excellent antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria, including Acinetobacter baumannii. By investigating a series of A. baumannii clinical isolates with elevated MICs of FDC, we showed that PER-like β-lactamases and, to a lesser extent, NDM-like β-lactamases, significantly contributed to reduced susceptibility to that...
