The Burden of Antimicrobial‐Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates in Children With Cystic Fibrosis: Molecular Characterization and Genotyping Analysis

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study highlights the prevalence of multidrug‐ and carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in pediatric cystic fibrosis patients, along with the presence of carbapenemase‐encoding genes and genetic profiles, suggesting clonal spread. These findings underscore the urgent need for surveillance and strategies to combat resistant strains and ...

Cefotaxime for the detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamase or plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamase and clinical characteristics of cefotaxime-non-susceptible Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteraemia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We investigated the performance of cefotaxime for the detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) or plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamase (pAmpC) and the clinical characteristics of cefotaxime-non-susceptible Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumoniae (

First Report of CTX-M-32 and CTX-M-101 in Proteus mirabilis from Zagreb, Croatia

open access: yesAntibiotics
Background/Objectives: Proteus mirabilis is a frequent causative agent of urinary tract and wound infections in community and hospital settings. It develops resistance to expanded-spectrum cephalosporins (ESC) due to the production of extended-spectrum β-

Reversing Antibiotic Resistance: Strategies From Adjuvants to Innovative Therapeutics

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Molecular reversal strategies against antibiotic resistance act through three mechanisms: inhibiting resistance gene function, blocking horizontal gene transfer, and modulating host defense. Emerging technologies, such as CRISPR‐Cas gene editing, photodynamic therapy, nanotechnology, and ecological competition, further strengthen these approaches ...

Characterization of cefotaxime resistant Escherichia coli isolated from broiler farms in Ecuador [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Antimicrobial resistance (AR) is a worldwide concern. Up to a 160% increase in antibiotic usage in food animals is expected in Latin American countries.

Extended spectrum and AmpC beta lactamases - Producing K. pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Pediatric Care in Nepal

open access: yesNepal Journal of Biotechnology
Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases are key mechanisms behind β-lactam antibiotic resistance, particularly in Gram-negative bacteria. In Nepal, antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections pose a growing public health concern among

Antibacterial Activity of Estragole From Ocimum tenuiflorum, and Tagetes lucida and Synergistic Effect With Meropenem and Tobramycin Against Multidrug‐ and Extensively Drug‐Resistant (MDR‐XDR) Gram‐Negative Bacteria

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study reveals estragole's bactericidal activity against MDR/XDR Gram‐negative pathogens. Synergy with meropenem and tobramycin was observed in > 88% of strains, reducing antibiotic MICs up to 16‐fold. Estragole represents a promising therapeutic adjuvant to enhance antibiotic efficacy and combat antimicrobial resistance.

Public Health Risks of Enterobacterial Isolates Producing Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases or AmpC β-Lactamases in Food and Food-Producing Animals: An EU Perspective of Epidemiology, Analytical Methods, Risk Factors, and Control Options [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The blaESBL and blaAmpC genes are spread by plasmid-mediated integrons, insertion sequences, and transposons, some of which are homologous in food animals and humans.

Multiparametric determination of genes and their point mutations for identification of beta-lactamases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
More than half of all currently used antibiotics belong to the beta-lactam group, but their clinical effectiveness is severely limited by antibiotic resistance of microorganisms that are the causative agents of infectious diseases. Several mechanisms for

Detection of AmpC-β-lactamases producing isolates among carbapenem resistant P. aeruginosa isolated from burn patient

open access: yesIranian Journal of Microbiology, 2014
Background  and  Objectives: Pseudomonas  aeruginosa is responsible for devastating nosocomial infections among severely burn patients. Class C of cephalosporinase (AmpC-β-lactamases) is important cause of multiple β-lactam resistance in P.
