Abstract
A comparison of carbapenem molecules for the detection of carbapenemase-producing bacteria by MALDI-TOF MS showed that imipenem exhibited higher sensitivity (97%) and specificity (100%) scores for Pseudomonas aeruginosa than meropenem. However, meropenem was more efficient (98% sensitivity and 100% specificity) against Enterobacteriaceae.Entities:
