617. Efficacy of Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (DMSA), a Zinc Chelator, in Combination with Imipenem Against Metallo-β-Lactamase Producing Escherichia coli in a Murine Peritonitis Model

BACKGROUND: A strategy used by bacterial strains to resist β-lactam antibiotics is the expression of metallo-β-lactamases (MBL) requiring zinc for activity. The use of a zinc chelator may restore carbapenem activity against MBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae. DMSA is a heavy metal chelator approved in...
