Abstract

We determined the occurrence of acquired metallo-βlactamase (MBL)-producing bacteria in Korean hospitals. Among the isolates nonsusceptible to imipenem that were collected from 28 hospitals from 2000 to 2001, 44 (11.4%) of 387 Pseudomonas spp. and 38 (14.2%) of 267 Acinetobacter spp. produced MBL and had alleles of bla_VIM-2 or bla_IMP-1. MBL-producing isolates were detected in 60.7% of the hospitals.
