Mechanisms of Action of Carbapenem Resistance

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Carbapenem antibiotics are the most effective antimicrobials for the treatment of infections caused by the most resistant bacteria. They belong to the category of β-lactams that include the penicillins, cephalosporins, monobactams and carbapenems. This class of antimicrobials has a broader spectrum of activity than most other beta-lactams antibiotics ...

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Infections: Taiwan Aspects [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), a major resistance concern emerging during the last decade because of significantly compromising the efficacy of carbapenem agents, has currently become an important focus of infection control. Many investigations have shown a high association of CRE infections with high case-fatality rates.
