Introduction: In the last 40 years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been among the bacteria known to acquire multiple mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and, as a result, it is Bike Parts - Spokes now one of the pathogens involved in healthcare-associated infections with multidrug resistant strains.Our study aimed to assess the production of carbapenemases HAND SOAP SPEARMINT LEMONGRASS in carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii by means of phenotypic methods and polymerase chain reaction technique (PCR), as well as to appraise the performances of carbapenemase detection by phenotypic tests compared to the PCR approach.
