ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Objective:

The New Delhi metallo-Beta-lactamase-1 [NDM-1] enzyme is a plasmid-encoded enzyme that inactivates carbapenem antibiotics. This study aims to ascertain if the modified Hodge test [MHT] has a role in screening for NDM-1 in Enterobacteriaceae with reduced carbapenem susceptibility
