Abstract

The predominant mechanism for resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in gram-negative bacteria is the synthesis of β-lactamase. To meet this challenge, β-lactams with greater β-lactamase stability, including cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams, were introduced in the 1980s. Resistance
