VIM-15 and VIM-16, Two New VIM-2-Like Metallo-β-Lactamases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Bulgaria and Germany.

PMID: 185197142008Bulgaria|Germany

Key Findings

The study identified two new VIM-2-like metallo-beta-lactamases, VIM-15 and VIM-16, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from Bulgaria and Germany. These enzymes confer resistance to various beta-lactam antibiotics, including carbapenems, cephalosporins, and penicillins.
