Imipenem antibiotic drug molecular model. Imipenem belongs to the carbapenem group of antibiotics. Bacteria are becoming increasingly resistant to carbapenems due to the bacterial enzyme NDM-1 (New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1). This enzyme,which was first found in bacteria from the Indian subcontinent,is now being found in bacteria in the UK. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded; carbon (green),hydrogen (white),nitrogen (blue),oxygen (red) and sulphur (yellow) | |
