Phenotypic detection of Metallo-β-Lactamase in Imipenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Carbapenems are the primary choice of treatment for severe Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. However, the emergence of carbapenem resistance due to the production of metallo β-lactamases (MBLs) is of global concern. In this study, 90 imipenem-(IPM- or IP-) resistant P. aeruginosa (IRPA) isolates, i...
