Fig. 1From: Comparative genome analysis of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa JNQH-PA57, a clinically isolated mucoid strain with comprehensive carbapenem resistance mechanismsIdentification of the carbapenemase production with three combined-disc tests. a Combined discs consisting of imipenem alone, imipenem with PBA or EDTA respectively, or imipenem with PBA plus EDTA. b Combined discs consisting of meropenem alone, meropenem with PBA or EDTA respectively, or meropenem with PBA plus EDTA. Augmentation of the inhibition zone by ≥5 mm was considered as a positive combined-disc test resultBack to article page
