Carbapenemases are β-lactamase enzymes that hydrolyze a variety of β-lactams including
carbapenem and belong to different Ambler classes (A, B, D). These enzymes can be …

International travel is a contributor to the acquisition and dissemination of AMR organisms
globally. Efforts to reduce the burden of AMR organisms should include a focus on …

Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative coccobacillus with exceptional survival skills in
an unfavorable environment and the ability to rapidly acquire antibiotic resistance, making it …

In this study, we characterize a new collection that comprises multidrug-resistant (MDR),
