Detecting Carbapenemase Production amongst Gram Negative Isolates and its Role in Appropriate Antibiotic Selection

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2020
Multidrug resistance has been increasing world wide amongst most microrganisms, and adding to increased rate of both hospital and community acquired infections. Of all resistance mechanisms the alarming spread of carbapenemase producers is most worrisome

Interpretation of Key Updates in the 36th Edition of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute M100 Standard

iLABMED, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute M100 document serves as a cornerstone standard for clinical microbiology laboratories in China. Maintaining the scientific rigor of its predecessors, the 36th edition incorporates updated epidemiological cutoff values, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data, and clinical efficacy evidence to revise

An Xpert screen to identify carbapenemases

Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2016
To prevent the spread of carbapenemases-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) active surveillance, contact isolation and cohorting infected patients should be practiced. Rectal swabs for the Xpert MDRO-assay of 32 patients were included. 71.85% were positive for targets incorporated into the MDRO-assay; whereas 28% were phenotypically not CRE and Xpert ...

Antarctic soil microbiomes encode structurally conserved and phylogenetically diverse beta‐lactamases

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
An integrative metagenomic framework combining sequence, structural, and functional inference reveals a phylogenetically diverse and structurally conserved repertoire of putative beta‐lactamases across Antarctic soil microbiomes, with predominance of class A and subclass B3 enzymes and limited but detectable associations with mobile genetic elements ...

Wide spread of carbapenemase-producing bacterial isolates in a Nigerian environment

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Objectives: The presence of carbapenemase-producing bacterial isolates is found not only in hospital and community settings but also in the environment.

Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

The emergence of plasmid-encoded oxacillinase and carbapenemase among uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolated from hospitalized patients in the North of Iran

Heliyon, 2023
Carbapenemase enzyme production is responsible for resistance to carbapenem among Gram-negative bacteria. This study aimed to detect common carbapenemase and oxacilinase genes among uropathogenic E.

Carbapenemases: Partners in crime

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2013
Carbapenemases, β-lactamases that inactivate carbapenems and most β-lactam antibiotics, are most widely known for their ability to confer resistance to β-lactams. They include serine carbapenemases, such as the widespread KPC family of enzymes, and the metallo-β-lactamases that contain the IMP, NDM and VIM enzyme families acquired by Gram-negative ...

Isolation of carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms from samples of raw‐meat diets for dogs in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms are an emerging threat in veterinary medicine that also have zoonotic potential. However, little is known about the prevalence and risks of these organisms in pet food. We present the incidental finding of gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms within samples of raw meat diets for dogs in the United Kingdom ...
