Emerging carbapenemases: a global perspective

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2010
The celestial rise in antibiotic resistance among Gram-negative bacteria has challenged both the scientific and pharmaceutical sectors. The hallmark of this general increase is the unbridled dissemination of carbapenem resistance genes, namely KPC, OXA and metallo-β-lactamase variants.

Clinically significant carbapenemases: an update

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2008
To provide a brief synopsis of studies which have extended our understanding of carbapenem resistance in clinical isolates in terms of epidemiology, mechanism of action and genetic factors affecting their carriage and spread.Studies published in the last 18 months continue to confirm that VIM-2 is the dominant metallo-beta-lactamase in Pseudomonas ...

Development and evaluation of the method for detecting metallo-carbapenemases among carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2019
A simple EDTA synergistic carbapenem inactivation method (esCIM) based on the simplified carbapenem inactivation method (sCIM) and EDTA synergistic carbapenem inactivation test (eCIM) detected the levels of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) carbapenemase.
