Enes, except blaADC-like, and also 1 kb upstream with the gene when an insertion element was detected by utilizing ISAba1-specific primers or by applying inverse PCR. All isolates scored constructive for the intrinsic blaOXA-51-like and blaADC-like genes. Eleven isolates (38 ) scored optimistic for blaOXA-23-like and four isolates (14 ) for blaOXA-40-like, which upon sequencing appeared to encode OXA-23 and OXA-40, respectively. These isolates had been all resistant to each tested carbapenems, whereas all other isolates have been susceptible or showed intermediate levels of resistance (Table 1). A blaCMY-2-like gene (encoding plasmid-mediated AmpC-type cephalosporinase) was detected in 1 isolate and encoded CMY-30, a close homologue of CMY-2 with comparable activity (13). To our expertise, the presence of blaCMY-2-like inside a. baumannii has not been reported previously. A blaPER-1-like gene was detected in isolates ten, 20, and 22, which upon sequencing appeared to encode PER-1 using the insertion element ISPa12 upstream on the gene (18). blaGES-1-like was detected in isolate 29 and encoded the GES-11 variant, which hasReceived 7 March 2015 Accepted 14 March 2015 Accepted manuscript posted on the internet 18 March 2015 Citation Trip H, Mende K, Majchrzykiewicz-Koehorst JA, Sedee NJA, Hulst AG, Jansen H-J, Murray CK, Paauw A. 2015.
