“…Among piperacillin/tazobactam-nonsusceptible NME (n = 4124), 90.4% of isolates were IMR-susceptible (range by country, 97.2 [Chile] to 67.0% [Guatemala]) and among meropenem-nonsusceptible NME isolates (n = 1433), 74.0% were IMR-susceptible (94.1% [Puerto Rico] to 5.1% [Guatemala]). Overall, 6.3% of all collected NME isolates carried a KPC (metallo-β-lactamase [MBL]-negative), 1.8% an MBL, 0.4% an OXA-48-like carbapenemase (MBL-negative), and 0.1% a GES carbapenemase (MBL-negative). …”

“…To determine which structure (hemagglutinin (HA) and/or neuraminidase (NA)) on the virus particles that provided the resistance, reverse genetics (rg) was applied to construct chimeric recombinant viruses from A/Puerto Rico/8/1934(H1N1) (PR8) plasmid vectors. rgPR8-H5 HA and rgPR8-H5 HANA were resistant to serum inhibitors while rgPR8-H5 NA and PR8 A(H1N1) parental viruses were sensitive, suggesting that HA of HPAI H5N1 viruses bestowed viral resistance to serum inhibition. …”
