Direct colorimetry of imipenem decomposition as a novel cost effective method for detecting carabapenamase producing bacteria
2022-03-13
Abstract excerpt
In the absence of a molecule that would collectively inhibit both metallo-β-lactamases and serine reactive carbapenemases, containment of their genes’ spreading is the main weapon currently available for confronting carbepenem resistance in hospitals. Cost effective methodologies rapidly detecting carbapenemase producing enterobacteria (CPE) would facilitate such measures. Herein a low cost CPE detection method wa...
