Hidden VIM-1 metallo-beta-lactamase phenotypes among Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates.

Abstract

A total of 87 Acinetobacter baumannii nonrepetitive consecutive clinical isolates were tested for the presence of metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs). Results of phenotypic assays (MBL Etest, imipenem/imipenem-EDTA combined-disk test, and imipenem/EDTA double-disk synergy test) were negative in all cases, but molecular testing revealed the presence of two bla(VIM-1)-carrying isolates. One isolate had bla(VIM-1) preceded by a weak P1 promoter, and both had inactivated P2 promoters and reduced bla(VIM-1) expression, partially justifying the results revealing hidden MBL phenotypes.
