Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae: A diagnostic, epidemiological and therapeutic challenge

Infectio, 2019
The global spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) has become a public health problem. Not all CPE are resistant to carbapenems creating a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.

Detection of blaNDM‐1 and blaIMP‐1 Metallo‐β‐Lactamases in Meropenem‐Resistant Clinical Escherichia coli Isolates Using Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method (mCIM) and PCR Techniques

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study examines the prevalence of blaNDM‐1 and blaIMP‐1 metallo‐β‐lactamase genes in meropenem‐resistant Escherichia coli isolates using mCIM and PCR. The results indicate a higher prevalence of blaNDM‐1 and suggest the presence of alternative resistance mechanisms in some strains, emphasizing the need for further research on antimicrobial ...

Emergence of colistin resistance in the largest university hospital complex of São Paulo, Brazil, over five years

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2017
Colistin resistance involving Gram-negative bacilli infections is a challenge for health institutions around of the world. Carbapenem-resistance among these isolates makes colistin the last therapeutic option for this treatment. Colistin resistance among

Phenotypic, Targeted Genotypic, and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Profiling of Extended‐Spectrum β‐Lactamase Production and Exclusive blaOXA−48 Gene Detection in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates From a South Lebanese Hospital

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study investigates the prevalence of multidrug‐resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in South Lebanon's Saida region, focusing on ESBL and carbapenemase production. Results showed a high prevalence of ESBL producers (89.5%) and a lower rate of carbapenemase producers (10.5%), with blaCTX‐M being the most common ESBL gene.

Novel nanoparticle‐mediated plasmid delivery in bacteria for difficult applications

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study presents the development and application of magnetite/silver‐pDMAEMA‐PEG‐BUFII nanobioconjugates as an advanced plasmid delivery system in bacteria. These nanobioconjugates demonstrated superior efficiency compared to traditional methods in four challenging applications: (i) genomic editing in Gram‐positive bacteria; (ii)
