“…These enzymes hydrolyse penicillins (with the exception of cefepime and carbapenems) as well as narrow-spectrum and extendedspectrum cephalosporins. In addition to AmpC, Class A -lactamases have been isolated (such as TEM-I type and SHV type) as well as ESBLs such as PER-1, an enzyme very prevalent in A. baumannii strains mostly in Turkey and Korea, and VEB-1, which has caused outbreaks in French and Belgian hospitals [58][59][60][61][62]. In addition, SHV-12, TEM-92, TEM-116 and CTX-M-2 have been reported from China, Italy, The Netherlands and Japan, respectively [2].…”
