Detection of metallo-beta lactamases and oxacillinase genes in carbapenem-resistant <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> strains isolated in Morocco
1 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Resistance to carbapenem is widespread among Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) strains. Metallo-beta lactamases enzymes (MBL) are responsible for carbapenem resistance, as are oxacillinases (OXA). In recent years, MBL producing carbapenem-resistant strains have been reported in the world and Morocco at increasing rates. Our study aimed to investigate the presence of carbapenemases in...
