ABSTRACT
We described the ocurrence of metallo-beta-lactamases (MBL) genes blaSPM-1 and blaIMP-1 in clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to imipenem and/or ceftazidime obtained from three universitary hospitals in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. The MBL production was screened by phenotypic test and the genes were detected by PCR.
RESUMO
Descrevemos a ocorrência dos genes de metalo-beta-lactamases (MBL) blaSPM-1 e blaIMP-1 em isolados clínicos de Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistentes ao imipenem e/ou ceftazidima obtidos em três hospitais universitários de Porto Alegre, Brasil. A produção de MBL foi observada através de técnica fenotípica e os genes foram detectados pelo método de PCR.
