Abstract excerpt
In order to investigate the diagnostic performance characteristics of four phenotypic assays in detecting carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), we collected the CRE strains from infected patients. The results of carbapenemase gene detection, blaKPC-2, blaOXA-23, blaNDM-1, blaNDM-4, blaNDM-5, blaIMP-4, and blaIMP-8, were used as a standard to evaluate the performances of combined disk test (CDT), modified...
