Abstract
We evaluated the OXA-48K-Set, a rapid immunochromatographic test for the detection of Oxacillinase-48 (OXA-48) carbapenemases, among 37 strains expressing OXA-48 and OXA-48-like carbapenemases and 20 additional strains harboring other β-lactamases. The test showed 100% sensitivity and specificity and the results were obtained in 15minutes.Keywords: Carbapenemase; Immunochromatography; OXA-48; Rapid detection
