Acinetobacter radioresistensas a Silent Source of Carbapenem Resistance forAcinetobacterspp [PDF]
ABSTRACTCarbapenem resistance results mostly from the expression of acquired carbapenem-hydrolyzing oxacillinases inAcinetobacter baumannii. TheblaOXA-23oxacillinase gene is increasingly reported worldwide and may represent an emerging threat. Our goal was to identify the progenitor of that carbapenemase gene. A collection of 50Acinetobactersp. strains
