Abstract
Systems and methods for detection and classification of IMP carbapenemases are described. In an aspect, sets of PCR primers associated with specific probes can be used to identify specific families of IMP β-lactamases and utilize multiple primer sets to identify all IMP variants via real-time PCR assays. The sets of PCR primers can also be coupled with a fluorescent dye to detect a broad range of the IMP variants.
