Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae, U.S. Rivers

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae, U.S. Rivers

Our study was initiated by previous isolation of 30 imipenem-resistant, gram-negative rods from 7 of 16 U.S. rivers sampled from 1999 to 2001. Imipenem hydrolysis was detected in 22 of those isolates identified as Enterobacter asburiae. Random amplified polymorphism DNA analysis showed that these E....
