β-lactamase-producing Gram negative isolates and molecular mechanisms involved in the expression of tigecycline resistance

Objectives: The emergence of antibiotic resistant Gram negative bacteria, particularly β-lactamase-producing bacteria, seriously compromises the efficacy of the treatment options available. This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility, and to characterize the tigecycline resistance...
