Class A carbapenemases [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2007
Carbapenems, such as imipenem and meropenem, are most often used to treat infections caused by enterobacteria that produce extended-spectrum beta-lactamases, and the emergence of enzymes capable of inactivating carbapenems would therefore limit the options for treatment.

Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) were almost nonexistent up to the 1990s, but are today encountered routinely in hospitals and other healthcare facilities in many countries including the United States. KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was the first to emerge and spread globally and is endemic in the United States, Israel, Greece, and

OXA-type carbapenemases [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2006
In recent years, the number of class D beta-lactamases with carbapenem-hydrolysing properties has increased substantially. Based on amino acid sequence identities, these class D or OXA-type carbapenemases are divided into eight distantly related groups, and they are only remotely related to other class D beta-lactamases.

Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

F1000Prime Reports, 2014
The continuing emergence of infections due to multidrug resistant bacteria is a serious public health problem. Klebsiella pneumoniae, which commonly acquires resistance encoded on mobile genetic elements, including ones that encode carbapenemases, is a prime example. K. pneumoniae carrying such genetic material, including both blaKPC and genes encoding

A Four-Hour Carbapenem Inactivation Method (CIMB.S) Using Bacillus stearothermophilus as Indicator Strain

Frontiers in Medicine, 2020
Objectives: There is an urgent need for accurate and fast diagnostic tests to identify carbapenemase-producing bacteria. Here we used Bacillus stearothermophilus as an indicator strain in the format of the carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) procedure ...

In vitro Activity of Pentamidine Alone and in Combination With Aminoglycosides, Tigecycline, Rifampicin, and Doripenem Against Clinical Strains of Carbapenemase-Producing and/or Colistin-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

, 2018
Enterobacteriaceae cause different types of community- and hospital-acquired infections. Moreover, the spread of multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae is a public health problem and the World Health Organization pointed them among the pathogens in which

Detection of VIM-1-producing Enterobacter cloacae and Salmonella enterica Serovars Infantis and Goldcoast at a breeding pig farm in Germany in 2017 and their molecular relationship to former VIM-1-producing S. Infantis Isolates in German livestock production [PDF]

, 2019
In 2011, VIM-1-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis and Escherichia coli were isolated for the first time in four German livestock farms. In 2015/2016, highly related isolates were identified in German pig production.
