Antimicrobial resistance of gram-negative pathogens isolated from hospitalized patients in Rostov region [PDF]
Objective. To evaluate resistance rates to carbapenems and III–IV generation cephalosporins among gramnegative bacteria, including production of carbapenemases and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL). Materials and Methods.

Background: Resistance to broad‑spectrum beta‑lactams, mediated by extended‑spectrum beta‑lactamases, and metallo‑beta‑lactamase enzymes, is an increasing problem worldwide.

The problem of the formation and spread of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in clinically significant types of microorganisms is extremely important, since β-lactams traditionally form the basis of the treatment of bacterial infections.

Beta-lactam resistance in Campylobacter [PDF]
Resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in Campylobacter is often associated with the production of a β-lactamase; to date the genomically encoded bla\(_{OXA-61}\) and the closely related cj0299 are the only described β-lactamase genes of Campylobacter ...

Interaction between Class B Beta-Lactamases and Suicide Substrates of Active-Site Serine Beta-Lactamases [PDF]
peer reviewedThe most widely used inactivators of active-site serine beta-lactamases behave as substrates of four class B metallo-beta-lactamases, but the efficiency of the catalytic process can vary by several orders of magnitude.

Introduction: Production of beta-lactamases is the predominant cause of resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics in Gram-negative bacteria. We investigated the diversity of plasmid-borne beta-lactamase genes and replicon type of the plasmids carrying the ...

Beta-lactamase induction and cell wall metabolism in Gram-negative bacteria
Production of beta-lactamases, the enzymes that degrade beta-lactam antibiotics, is the most widespread and threatening mechanism of antibiotic resistance.

Cefotaxime/sulbactam: clinical and pharmacological characteristics [PDF]
The recently approved cefotaxime/sulbactam, combination of third-generation cephalosporin (cefotaxime) and beta-lactamase inhibitor (sulbactam), can combat resistance mechanisms associated with the production of serine beta-lactamases, including some ...

BackgroundExtended spectrum Beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC beta-lactamases (AmpC) are the common enzymes produced by gram negative bacilli, which are their main mechanisms of resistance to all generations of cephalosporins.

Catalytic Properties of Class a Beta-Lactamases: Efficiency and Diversity [PDF]
peer reviewedbeta-Lactamases are the main cause of bacterial resistance to penicillins, cephalosporins and related beta-lactam compounds. These enzymes inactivate the antibiotics by hydrolysing the amide bond of the beta-lactam ring.
