Abstract

Carbapenemase detection is essential for the appropriate treatment of CRE infections. Several clinical laboratories have begun using relevant carbapenemase assays such as mCIM (modified carbapenem inactivation method) and eCIM (EDTA carbapenem inactivation method), the APB/EDTA method, NG-test Carba 5, and GeneXpert Carba-R to detect carbapenemases.
