Abstract
We analyzed a collection of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacterial isolates and detected VIM-1, VIM-2, and KPC-2 in diverse enterobacterial species and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Our findings suggest a more widespread dissemination of carbapenemases in Germany than currently appreciated.
