Abstract
The latest threat in multidrug resistance in Gram-negative bacteria corresponds to the emergence of NDM-1-producing isolates that have been identified in several countries worldwide. The plasmid-mediated bla NDM-1 gene encodes a metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) with high carbapenemase activity and wasKeywords
