Abstract: OBJECTIVES In this study, a rapid and simple chromogenic method for screening of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE), namely the Nitro-Carba test (NCT), was developed. METHODS The NCT was validated using a total of 31 carbapenemase-producing isolates… read more here.

Abstract: The increase in carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) is a serious concern worldwide ([1][1][–][2][7][3]). However, not all CPE isolates show reduced susceptibility to carbapenems ([6][4], [8][5][–][6][11][7]). Some CPE isolates also produce other beta-lactamases, such as extended- read more here.
