Identification and Characterization of Carbapenem Hydrolysing β-lactamase – KPC among Enterobacteriaceae: A report from North India

Identification and Characterization of Carbapenem Hydrolysing β-lactamase – KPC among Enterobacteriaceae: A report from North India

Objective: The serine carbapenemase KPC (Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase) has emerged as a beta-lactamase capable of inactivating carbapenem antibiotics. The emergence of carbapenem-resistant enterobacteria is therefore worrisome, since consequently the antimicrobial treatment options are very r...
