Penicillin Use in Meningococcal Disease Management: Active Bacterial Core Surveillance Sites, 2009. [PDF]

, 2016
In 2009, in the Active Bacterial Core surveillance sites, penicillin was not commonly used to treat meningococcal disease. This is likely because of inconsistent availability of antimicrobial susceptibility testing and ease of use of third-generation ...

Increased zinc levels facilitate phenotypic detection of ceftazidime-avibactam resistance in metallo-β-lactamase-producing Gram-negative bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Ceftazidime-avibactam is one of the last resort antimicrobial agents for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant, Gram-negative bacteria. Metallo-β-lactamase-producing bacteria are considered to be ceftazidime-avibactam resistant. Here, we evaluated a semi-
