| Abstract | :
This study evaluated the performance of the MBT STAR-Carba kit (Bruker Daltonics), to detect carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. in comparison with the RAPIDEC® CARBA NP test (BioMerieux). MBT STAR-Carba allowed the detection of carbapenemases in Enterobacteriaceae and P. aeruginosa. |
