Epidemiology and diagnostics of carbapenem resistance in gram-negative bacteria
Carbapenem resistance in gram-negative bacteria has caused a global epidemic that continues to grow. Although carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae have received the most attention because resistance was first reported in these pathogens in the ...

Prevalence of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae and the Genes Responsible for Carbapenemase Production in a Tertiary Care Hospital in South India [PDF]
Introduction: Carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) is a major concern in the management of resistant infections. The mechanism of carbapenem resistance is most commonly mediated by carbapenemases. The five most common genes (NDM, KPC, VIM,

Among the many different structurally distinct classes of beta-lactams, the carbapenem class is regarded as that which is most potent and which has the widest spectrum of antimicrobial activity. Rapidly bactericidal, and demonstrating time-dependent killing, carbapenemes have a spectrum of antimicrobial activity that includes Gram-positive and Gram ...
