Antibacterial activity of enmetazobactam against Acinetobacter spp.: a molecular dissection of mechanism of action and resistance determinants

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
The persistence of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii remains a clinical challenge. Cefepime/enmetazobactam is a novel combination with demonstrated activity against extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales, but its activity ...

Molecular characterization and antibiotic resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii in cerebrospinal fluid and blood.

PLoS ONE, 2021
The increasing prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) caused nosocomial infections generate significant comorbidity and can cause death among patients. Current treatment options are limited.

Discernment of Acinetobacter Species in World Scenario

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
The morphology of Acinetobacter species is Gram-negative, nonmotile, nonfermenting, Strictly aerobic, Oxidase negative, and Catalase positive. It usually results from an infectious agent and is nonpathogenic in healthy people. A.

Molecular epidemiology of Acinetobacter baumannii during COVID-19 at a hospital in northern China

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials
Background The wide spread of carbapenem-resistance clones of Acinetobacter baumannii has made it a global public problem. Some studies have shown that the prevalence of Acinetobacter baumannii clones can change over time.

The effect of Meropenem stewardship at Prof Ngoerah Hospital on the prevalence of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the cost of purchasing meropenem

Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology
Background: Irrational use of antibiotics will trigger anti-microbial resistance which is a threat to health problems now and in the future. The use of meropenem is often the last choice in using antibiotics without undergoing microbiological examination
