Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2001 Mar; 45(4):1151-61. PMID: 11257029
A Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate showing moderate to high-level imipenem and meropenem resistance was investigated. The MICs of both drugs were 16 microg/ml. The beta-lactamase activity against imipenem and meropenem was...

Steward C, Stocker S, Swenson J, OHara C, Edwards J, Gaynes R, et al.
J Clin Microbiol . 1999 Feb; 37(3):544-7. PMID: 9986809
Fluoroquinolone resistance appears to be increasing in many species of bacteria, particularly in those causing nosocomial infections. However, the accuracy of some antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods for detecting fluoroquinolone resistance...

Weigel L, Steward C, Tenover F
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 1998 Oct; 42(10):2661-7. PMID: 9756773
Fluoroquinolone resistance (FQ-R) in clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae species has been reported with increasing frequency in recent years. Two mechanisms of FQ-R have been identified in gram-negative organisms: mutations in...
