Editorial The Emergence and spread of multiresistant strains of Pseu-domonas aeruginosa is increasing problem, because it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. P. aeruginosa has intrinsic resistance to a wide variety of antibiotics, including most...

Carbapenem-resistance is a great challenge for antimicrobial therapy in Pseudomonas aeruginosa multidrug-resistant infections, as it reduces therapeutic options. This study investigated carbapenem-resistance mechanisms six strains of non-carbapenemase-producing P. aeruginosa. Minimal inhibitory concentrations imipenem and meropenem were determined by epsilometric test broth microdilution. Mutat...
