Abstract
Backgrounds: The global spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae represents a public health concern. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of carbapenem resistance and the presence of some oxacillinase types and class 1-3 integrons among Enterobacter clinical isolates from an Iranian inpatient population. Materials & Methods : Ninety Enterobacter isolates from hospitalized patients were diagnosed by microbiological methods. Antibiogram pattern was also determined. The presence of class 1-3 integrons and four types of oxacillinase genes was assessed using PCR. Findings : Among 90 Enterobacter isolates, the most common species was E
