Cyclic Boronates Inhibit All Classes of β-Lactamase [PDF]
β-Lactamase-mediated resistance is a growing threat to the continued use of β-lactam antibiotics. The use of the β-lactam-based serine-β-lactamase (SBL) inhibitors clavulanic acid, sulbactam, tazobactam, and, more recently, the non-β-lactam inhibitor ...

Resistance to Ceftazidime/Avibactam Plus Meropenem/Vaborbactam When Both are Used Together Achieved in Four Steps from Metallo-β-Lactamase Negative <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>. [PDF]
Serine β-lactamases are dominant causes of β-lactam resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Recently, this has driven clinical deployment of the β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor pairs ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam.
