“…Several traditional methods have been developed to detect these enzymessuch as biochemical tests, growth-based assays, and immunochromatographic assaysbut they cannot classify carbapenemases and are time-consuming (Hrabák et al, 2014;Nordmann and Poirel, 2019;Quale et al, 2006). Furthermore, many commercial methods have been established in recent years to detect the presence of carbapenemase (Cho et al, 2020;Correa-Martínez et al, 2020), of which the NG-Test CARBA 5 assay, which is a lateral flow immunoassay, can specifically detect Enterobacterales producing NDM, KPC, OXA-48like, IMP, and VIM enzymes (Boutal et al, 2018). The overall sensitivity and specificity of this test were found to be 97.31% and 99.75%, respectively (Hopkins et al, 2018).…”
