See full text

A process for detecting and/or identifying, in a biological sample, bacteria exhibiting a resistance to carbapenems by producing carbapenemase, includes: a) contacting said sample with a reaction medium including at least one carbapenem-class antibiotic, and cloxacillin; b) incubating the whole so as to allow the bacteria to grow; and c) detecting the strains exhibiting enzymatic resistance to carbapenems. Advantageously, the medium employed in step a) also contains phenylalanine-arginine-beta-naphthylamide (PAbetaN).
