Description

AmpC beta-lactamases (AmpCs) are resistance enzymes produced by pathogenic organisms such as E. coli. AmpC enzymes hydrolyze a variety of antimicrobials, including cephalosporins, penicillins, and aztreonam. The presence of AmpC can be detected by comparing the inhibitory concentration (IC) of cefotetan, which induces AmpC, with the IC of cefotetan+cloxacillin, in which cloxacillin is an AmpC inhibitor.
