Pseudomonas aeruginosa possesses a large number of resistance mechanisms to different antimicrobials with carbapenems being the most powerful in treating resistant P. aeruginosa . Hence, it is imperative to explore different mechanisms of carbapenems-resistance in P . aeruginosa to achieve successful treatment through the design of new drugs acting on this interaction to combat against antimicrobial resistance.
