Emergence of an IncX3 plasmid co-harbouring the carbapenemase genes bla_NDM-5 and bla_OXA-181. [PDF]

JAC Antimicrob Resist
Abstract Background The spread of transmissible plasmids with carbapenemase genes has contributed to a global increase in carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales over the past two decades, with blaNDM and blaOXA among the most prevalent carbapenemase genes.

Genetic Plurality of OXA/NDM-Encoding Features Characterized From Enterobacterales Recovered From Czech Hospitals

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The aim of this study was to characterize four Enterobacterales co-producing NDM- and OXA-48-like carbapenemases from Czech patients with travel history or/and previous hospitalization abroad. Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates belonged to “high risk” clones

Emergence of oxacillinase-181 carbapenemase-producing diarrheagenic Escherichia coli in Ghana

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2021
The emergence and spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria are serious threats to public health. We characterized two OXA-181-producing Escherichia coli isolates from pediatric patients with diarrhea from Ghana.

OXA-181-like carbapenemases in Klebsiella pneumoniae ST14, ST15, ST23, ST48, and ST231 from septicemic neonates: coexistence with NDM-5, resistome, transmissibility, and genome diversity [PDF]

, 2021
Studies on the epidemiology and genomes of isolates harboring OXA-48-like genes in septicemic neonates are rare. Here, isolates producing these carbapenemases which emerged and persisted in an Indian neonatal unit were characterized in terms of their ...

First Indian report on B4/H24RxC ST410 multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli from bloodstream infection harbouring blaOXA-181 and blaCTX-M-15

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Escherichia coli is regarded as one of the most commonly isolated Gram-negative pathogens from bloodstream infections. Increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among E. coli is a threat to disease management as well as further dissemination of AMR genes to other clinically important pathogens. Here we report the genome of a multidrug-resistant (MDR) E.

Bacterial Membrane Vesicles: Physiological Roles, Infection Immunology, and Applications

Advanced Science, Volume 10, Issue 25, September 5, 2023., 2023
As illustrated in the graphics, bacterial membrane vesicle (BMV) contributes to the adhesion and invasion of bacteria into the host cells, takes part in the interactions between bacteria and the innate immune system, also plays active roles in the development of bacterial resistance.

Dissemination of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacteriaceae and associated resistance determinants through global food systems

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2706-2727, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Antimicrobial agents are a critical component of modern healthcare systems, fulfilling a core function in patient care and improving individual patient outcomes and consequently overall public health. However, the efficacy of antimicrobial interventions is being consistently eroded by the emergence and dissemination of various antimicrobial ...

Repatriation of a patient with COVID-19 contributed to the importation of an emerging carbapenemase producer

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2021
: Objectives: Patients hospitalised abroad can become colonised with multidrug-resistant bacteria and import them to their home countries. In this study, we characterised an OXA-484 carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli strain from a Swiss patient ...

Rapid culture‐independent loop‐mediated isothermal amplification detection of antimicrobial resistance markers from environmental water samples

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 977-989, May 2023., 2023
A schematic illustration of the culture‐independent preparation method for water samples and detection of five AMR targets. The 8‐tube strip contains different AMR LAMP primers targeting as follows: (1) mcr‐1, (2) blaKPC, (3) blaOXA‐48, (4) blaOXA‐23, (5) blaVIM, (6) positive control 1, (7) positive control 2 and (8) negative control, with a pink ...
