Comparative Evaluation of a Chromogenic Agar Medium, the Modified Hodge Test, and a Battery of Meropenem-Inhibitor Discs for Detection of Carbapenemase Activity in Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011
ABSTRACT Three phenotypic methods (modified Hodge test, chromogenic agar, and meropenem discs combined with specific inhibitors) used for the detection of carbapenemase activity were tested on a panel of characterized Enterobacteriaceae expressing various β-lactamase mechanisms. Overall, the meropenem-plus-
