Potency of Carbapenems for the Prevention of Carbapenem-Resistant Mutants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Antibiotics, 2006
The potencies of the carbapenems; doripenem (DRPM), meropenem (MEPM) and imipenem (IPM) in preventing the emergence of carbapenem-resistant mutants were examined in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. The carbapenems predominantly selected carbapenem-resistant mutants or carbapenem mutants with reduced susceptibilities that were specifically resistant to ...
