Development of a Two Triplex Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction for Rapid Detection of Six Carbapenemase Genes in Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesOsong Public Health and Research Perspectives, 2020
Objectives Carbapenem resistance is a serious clinical and public health threat. Carbapenemase can confer carbapenem resistance, and most carbapenemase genes are plasmid encoded so resistance can easily spread.

Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yesF1000Prime 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

Rapid detection of carbapenemases and ESKAPEEc bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of the Balkan Medical Union, 2021
Introduction. Carbapenems have been the ultimate antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, recently, carbapenems-resistant bacteria have emerged significantly. The objective of the study was the identification of ESKAPEEc bacteria and rapid detection of carbapenemase production.

Carbapenemases: the Versatile β-Lactamases [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2007
SUMMARYCarbapenemases are β-lactamases with versatile hydrolytic capacities. They have the ability to hydrolyze penicillins, cephalosporins, monobactams, and carbapenems. Bacteria producing these β-lactamases may cause serious infections in which the carbapenemase activity renders many β-lactams ineffective.
