Frequency of IMP-1 and VIM Genes among Metallo-beta-Lactamase Producing Acinetobacter spp. Isolated from Health Care Associated Infections inNortheast of Iran

Background: The emergence and rapid spread of metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) producing Acinetobacter spp. are of great concern worldwide due to limited treatment options. Epidemiologic studies of the causing genes are important for prevention. Methods:  In  this  study,  70  imipenem-resistant  Acinet...
