First outbreak of VIM-2 metallo-β-lactamase-producing in The Netherlands: microbiology, epidemiology and clinical outcomes
International audience ; This study was designed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing in a tertiary care centre in The Netherlands, a country that is considered to have a low prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Imipenem-resistant isolates cultured from clinical specimens during 2008-2009 were analysed phenotypically and molecularly by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with sequencing. Genotyping was performed by multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA). Clinical information was obtained by electronic chart re... Mehr ...
