The in vitro activity of aztreonam-avibactam and cefiderocol against globally collected clinical metallo-β-lactamase- and/or serine-carbapenemase-positive Enterobacterales isolates and the utility of commonly used in vitro diagnostic kits [PDF]
The NG-test CARBA 5 and Xpert Carba-R IVD kits were tested against 269 clinical Enterobacterales isolates selected for their previously determined carbapenemase content from the ATLAS Global Surveillance program, primarily from 2020 to 2022 ...
