Structural and Functional Aspects of Class A Carbapenemases. [PDF]
The fight against infectious diseases is probably one of the greatest public health challenges faced by our society, especially with the emergence of carbapenem-resistant gram-negatives that are in some cases pan-drug resistant.

Epidemiology and Genetic Traits of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales: A Global Threat to Human Health [PDF]
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) represent an important threat to global health, resulting in an urgent issue in clinical settings. CPE often exhibit a multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype, thus reducing the antimicrobial armamentarium, with

OXA-48-like carbapenemases in the UK: an analysis of isolates and cases from 2007 to 2014 [PDF]
Objectives: OXA-48-like carbapenemases have spread worldwide since 2001. We analysed patient and microbiological data for UK isolates with these enzymes as confirmed by the national reference laboratory from November 2007 - December 2014.
