Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii carrier detection: a simple and efficient protocol

ABSTRACTTimely detection of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) carriers is essential to direct infection control measures. In this work, we aimed to develop a practical protocol to detect CRAB from screening samples. To choose a selective medium that detects CRAB with high sensitivi...
