OBJECTIVE: The OXA-48-like enzymes have the capacity to hydrolyse carbapenems and are members of class D β-lactamases that are primarily detected in Enterobacterales. The allelic variant blaOXA-163, which has low hydrolytic activity towards carbapenems, was detected in Argentina in 2011 and has spread successfully since then, giving sporadic origin to novel local variants. The aim of this study was to analyse the...
