A Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method, CIMTris, for Carbapenemase Production in Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas Species. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2017
ABSTRACT The carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) and modified CIM (mCIM) are simple and economical phenotypic screening methods for detecting carbapenemase production in Gram-negative bacteria. Although the mCIM has been recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, both the CIM and mCIM have limitations.

Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method for Phenotypic Detection of Carbapenemase Production among Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2017
ABSTRACT The ability of clinical microbiology laboratories to reliably detect carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CP-CRE) is an important element of the effort to prevent and contain the spread of these pathogens and an integral part of antimicrobial stewardship.

Is This the Carbapenemase Test We've Been Waiting for? A Multicenter Evaluation of the Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2017
ABSTRACT A plethora of phenotypic methods exist for the detection of carbapenemases; however, clinical laboratories have struggled for years with accurate, objective phenotypic detection of carbapenemase activity in Enterobacteriaceae . In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Microbiology

Retrospective and prospective evaluation of the Carbapenem inactivation method for the detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2017
There is an urgent need for accurate and rapid diagnostic tests to identify carbapenemase producing enterobacteria (CPE). Here, we have evaluated the Carbapenem Inactivation Method (CIM) test to detect CPEs from cultured colonies.A total of 256 enterobacterial isolates were used to evaluate the performance of the CIM in comparison to Carba NP test and ...

Optimization of the rapid carbapenem inactivation method for use with AmpC hyperproducers [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2021
Abstract Objectives Detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPEs) is sometimes difficult with AmpC-hyperproducing Enterobacterales (AHEs), as they may falsely be classified as CPEs. Here, we present a rapid Carbapenem Inactivation Method (rCIM) optimized for AmpC producers (rCIM-A) that

Reliability of carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) and modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) for detection of OXA-48-like and NDM-1

Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2021
Carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) and modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) were recently developed for rapid detection of carbapenemase producing Gram negative bacilli (CP-GNB). In this study we compared the ability of modified Hodge test (MHT), CIM and mCIM to identify CP-GNB in Oman and India.Fifty fully characterized and genotyped CP ...

Evaluation of the carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) for detecting carbapenemase activity in enterobacteria [PDF]

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2017
The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the CIM test in the detection of carbapenemase activity in 124 strains of Enterobacteriaceae.A panel of 124 previously characterized Enterobacteriaceae was tested: 77 strains producing the following carbapenemase families: KPC (n = 14), GES (n = 22), NDM (n = 19), VIM (n = 4), IMP (n = 4) and ...
