UTILITY OF THE CEFTAZIDIME-IMIPENEM ANTAGONISM TEST (CIAT) TO DETECT AND CONFIRM THE PRESENCE OF INDUCIBLE AMPC BETA-LACTAMASES AMONG ENTEROBACTERIACEAE

Utility of the ceftazidime-imipenem antagonism test (CIAT) to detect and confirm the presence of inducible AmpC beta-lactamases among enterobacteriaceae

Detection of AmpC beta-lactamase production by enterobacteria has been problematic.Contrary to ESBLs, no specific guidelines are available for detection and confirmation of AmpC production by clinical relevant Wall Sconce microorganisms.Moreover, some bacterial species may produce inducible AmpC beta-lactamases that can be easily overlooked by rout

Forward di-jet production in dilute-dense collisions

We derive a factorization formula for forward production of two jets in dilutedense collisions that is valid for an arbitrary value of the momentum imbalance of the jets, kt.This generalizes the transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization formula that has been derived before by Dominguez et al.Their 142 formula is valid only for small values
