blaDHA is a plasmid-mediated AmpC beta-lactamase that hydrolyzes cephalosporins and is not inhibited by common beta-lactamase inhibitors. It is found in various Enterobacterales and can spread among bacteria.
Detection of blaDHA in molecular testing identifies infections requiring carbapenems or newer agents for effective therapy. Sample type is typically a culture isolate or direct clinical specimen.
