Nine imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were found to contain a variety of metallo-beta-lactamase genes, including bla(IMP-1), bla(IMP-7), bla(VIM-2), bla(VIM-6), and the novel bla(IMP-26). Multilocus sequence typing showed a diversity of sequence types. Comparison with isolates from an earlier study showed that the epidemic clones from 2000 have not become established.

D015780 Carbapenems A group of beta-lactam antibiotics in which the sulfur atom in the thiazolidine ring of the penicillin molecule is replaced by a carbon atom. THIENAMYCINS are a subgroup of carbapenems which have a sulfur atom as the first constituent of the side chain. Antibiotics, Carbapenem,Carbapenem,Carbapenem Antibiotics
D016521 Electrophoresis, Gel, Pulsed-Field Gel electrophoresis in which the direction of the electric field is changed periodically. This technique is similar to other electrophoretic methods normally used to separate double-stranded DNA molecules ranging in size up to tens of thousands of base-pairs. However, by alternating the electric field direction one is able to separate DNA molecules up to several million base-pairs in length.
