Enterobacter spp. are rarely resistant to carbapenems. In this report, one Enterobacter sp. isolate possessed bla(KPC-3) and two possessed bla(KPC-2). For all three strains, the imipenem MICs were dependent on the inoculum and testing method; two were reported by the clinical laboratories to be carbapenem susceptible. Improved detection methods will be necessary to identify these enzymes.
肠杆菌属细菌对碳青霉烯类药物很少耐药。在本报告中,一株肠杆菌属分离株携带bla(KPC - 3),两株携带bla(KPC - 2)。对于所有这三株菌株,亚胺培南的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)取决于接种量和检测方法;临床实验室报告称其中两株对碳青霉烯类药物敏感。需要改进检测方法以识别这些酶。
