Purpose: The antimicrobial activity of doripenem in comparison of imipenem, meropenem and ertapenem among Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from burn and Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients were determined. Methods: Metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) genes in imipenem non susceptible P. aeruginosa isolates were dete...
