Evaluation of Resistance Mechanisms in Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae.
Infection and drug resistance, 2020 Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is a major concern leading to morbidity and mortality in the world. CRE often is becoming a cause of therapeutic failure in both hospital and community-acquired infections.This study aimed to investigate the resistance mechanisms of CRE by phenotypic and molecular methods.Sixty CRE (50 Klebsiella pneumoniae,

Mechanism for carbapenem resistance of clinical Enterobacteriaceae isolates
Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2017 Carbapenemase-producing 'super bacteria', particularly NDM-1 and its variants, have become a major public health concern worldwide. The present study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism for carbapenem resistance of clinical Enterobacteriaceae isolates.
