Antimicrobial resistance of gram-negative pathogens isolated from hospitalized patients in Rostov region [PDF]

open access: yesКлиническая микробиология и антимикробная химиотерапия, 2020
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.

Phenotypic Characterization of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases and Metallo-Beta-Lactamase of Multi Drug Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Causing Nosocomial Infections in Erbil City

open access: yesAl-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science, 2020
Background: Resistance to broad‑spectrum beta‑lactams, mediated by extended‑spectrum beta‑lactamases, and metallo‑beta‑lactamase enzymes, is an increasing problem worldwide.

Бета-лактамази ентеробактерій: загальна характеристика, механізми та регіональні особливості розповсюдження

open access: yesAnnals of Mechnikov's Institute, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2011
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]

open access: yes, 1999
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.

Dissemination of IncF plasmids carrying beta-lactamase genes in Gram-negative bacteria from Nigerian hospitals

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2013
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
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]

open access: yesКлиническая микробиология и антимикробная химиотерапия, 2019
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 ...

Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase and AmpC beta-lactamases producing gram negative bacilli isolated from clinical specimens at International Clinical Laboratories, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 1998
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.
