Identification of group specific motifs in Beta-lactamase family of proteins
Background Beta-lactamases are one of the most serious threats to public health. In order to combat this threat we need to study the molecular and functional diversity of these enzymes and identify signatures specific to these enzymes.

Prevalence and characterization of hybrid blaCTX-M among Escherichia coli isolates from livestock and other animals [PDF]
This study investigated 248 extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli isolates from 2012 to 2013 for hybrid blaCTX-M genes. blaCTX-M genes were detected in 228 isolates of which 14 isolates were hybrid blaCTX-M positive (6 blaCTX-M-123, 6 ...

Allergic Reactions and Cross-Reactivity Potential with Beta-Lactamase Inhibitors
Although beta-lactam allergies are an emerging focus of stewardship programs and interventions, less is publicly released regarding allergies to beta-lactamase inhibitors. This review presents and evaluates the data regarding allergic reactions with beta-

Impact of amoxicillin-clavulanate followed by autologous fecal microbiota transplantation on fecal microbiome structure and metabolic potential [PDF]
The spread of multidrug resistance among pathogenic organisms threatens the efficacy of antimicrobial treatment options. The human gut serves as a reservoir for many drug-resistant organisms and their resistance genes, and perturbation of the gut ...

Appearance of β-lactam resistance genes in agricultural soils and clinical isolates over the 20th century [PDF]
Debate exists about whether agricultural versus medical antibiotic use primarily drives increasing antibiotic resistance (AR) across nature. Both sectors have been historically inconsistent at antibiotic stewardship and, as a result, acquired bacterial ...
