Abstract
ABSTRACTWe describe here the occurrence ofblaVIM-2in 10 carbapenem-resistantPseudomonas monteiliistrains isolated from different clinical samples from patients at the University Hospital Marqués de Valdecilla in northern Spain. All theblaVIM-2-harboringP. monteiliiisolates possessed a class 1 integron, with the cassette array [intI1_blaVIM-2_aac(6′)-Ib_qacEΔ1_sul1]. Our results show the emergence of VIM-2-producing multidrug-resistant species other thanPseudomonas aeruginosaorPseudomonas putidain a Spanish hospital.P. monteilii, although sporadically isolated, should also be considered an important metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) reservoir.
