Abstract excerpt
Carbapenems are last-resort antibiotics against gram-negative pathogens, including multidrug-resistant Campylobacter. However, carbapenem-resistant Campylobacter strains are emerging and have been isolated in patients treated with carbapenems. This emerging resistance mechanism may be underpinned by multiple genetic determinants, yet it has not been systematically characterized or elucidated until now. In this...
