The Role of , , and in the Regulation of the Class A Carbapenemase NmcA in .

Various carbapenemases have been identified in the Enterobacteriaceae. However, the induction and corresponding regulator genes of carbapenemase NmcA has rarely been detected in the complex (ECC). The NmcA-positive isolate ECC NR1491 was first detected in Japan in 2013.

Rapid species identification and epidemiological analysis of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. by a PCR-based open reading frame typing method.

The spread of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. has become a global problem. In this study, 18 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii (ACB) complexes, identified using a conventional biochemical method at our hospital during 2004-2013, were studied for species identification and epidemiological analyses.
