VEB-1-like extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Kuwait
Emerg Infect Dis.
2001 May-Jun.
Abstract
Two clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from patients in intensive care units in Kuwait were resistant to expanded-spectrum cephalosporins and showed a synergistic effect between ceftazidime and clavulanic acid. This is the first report of extended-spectrum enzymes from nosocomial isolates from the Middle East.
