Fig. 1.
Result of antimicrobial susceptibility of positive MHT isolates by ertapenem disk. Antimicrobial susceptibility of ertapenem disk and its patterns compared with existence of the blaKPC gene. Results show that 25% isolates were MHT-negative and resistant to ertapenem disk.
Fig. 2.
Result of antimicrobial susceptibility of positive MHT isolates by meropenem disk. Antimicrobial susceptibility of meropenem disk and its patterns compared with existence of the blaKPC gene. Results show that 32.29% isolates were MHT-negative and resistant to meropenem disk.
