Plasmid-mediated blaGES-24 in Acinetobacter nosocomialis: Genetic context and resistance profile
GES-24 represents a GES-type β-lactamase with carbapenemase activity but relatively weak hydrolytic activity against certain β-lactams. The genetic analysis suggests that the plasmid carrying bla<sub>GES-24</sub> may have evolved from a hybrid plasmid.
