N2 - A strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3-Post) was resistant to cefsulodin and ceftazidime at 37°C but sensitive at 20°C. Resistance was mediated by chromosomally-encoded β lactamase which was synthesised at a high level during growth above 30°C but at a low, inducible level during growth below 27°C.
