Extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa identified in Lima, Peru co-expressing a VIM-2 metallo-β-lactamase, OXA-1 β-lactamase and GES-1 extended-spectrum β-lactamase

INTRODUCTION: Pseudomonas aeruginosa has the ability to acquire plasmids and other mobile genetic elements that confer resistance to antibiotics. Bacterial genes encoding different β-lactamases (bla), such as metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) and extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL), can confer resistanc...
