Abstract

Carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales is a major and persistent public health problem worldwide. In current research, we present data of 96 Enterobacterales species collected from a clinical hospital in Isfahan, Iran. The bacterial identification was performed by standard biochemical tests and API 20E methods. Agar disk diffusion assay was performed to determine the phenotypic antibiotic resistance of strains. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out to detect carbapenemase genes. In this manuscript, multiple antimicrobial resistance phenotype such as multiple carbapenem resistance determinants were detected. The data would provide important information on distribution of carbapenemase genes of those pathogenic bacteria in Iran.
