Susceptibility of Tigecycline against Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae

Pakistan Journal of Medicine and Dentistry
Background: Enterobacteriaceae, a large family of Gram-negative bacteria, are one of the commonest etiological agents causing serious bacterial infections to humans. Carbapenems are the group of antibiotics with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial action.

Development and Evaluation of Multiplex PCR for the Detection of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae

Annals of Clinical Microbiology, 2019
Background: The isolation of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) has become increasingly common. Continuous surveillance for these organisms is essential because their infections are closely related to outbreaks of illness and are ...

Colonization of the gut by Klebsiella pneumoniae and its multidrug-resistant strains is well marked in preterm neonates

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundThe colonization of preterm neonates by multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, especially in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), remains poorly understood despite its potential role in healthcare-associated transmission.

Present and Future of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Infections

Antibiotics, 2019
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have become a public health threat worldwide. There are three major mechanisms by which Enterobacteriaceae become resistant to carbapenems: enzyme production, efflux pumps and porin mutations.
