Escalating antimicrobial resistance among Enterobacteriaceae: focus on carbapenemases
Introduction: Over the past few decades, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has skyrocketed globally among bacteria within the Family Enterobacteriaceae (i.e.

Phosphonopeptides Revisited, in an Era of Increasing Antimicrobial Resistance [PDF]
Given the increase in resistance to antibacterial agents, there is an urgent need for the development of new agents with novel modes of action. As an interim solution, it is also prudent to reinvestigate old or abandoned antibacterial compounds to assess

Rapid Broad Spectrum Detection of Carbapenemases with a Dual Fluorogenic-Colorimetric Probe.
Carbapenems stand as one of the last-resort antibiotics; however, their efficacy is threatened by the rising number and rapid spread of carbapenemases.

Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
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

Carbapenemases: Transforming Acinetobacter baumannii into a Yet More Dangerous Menace
Acinetobacter baumannii is a common cause of serious nosocomial infections. Although community-acquired infections are observed, the vast majority occur in people with preexisting comorbidities. A. baumannii emerged as a problematic pathogen in the 1980s

Mobile Carbapenemase Genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Carbapenem-resistantPseudomonas aeruginosais one of the major concerns in clinical settings impelling a great challenge to antimicrobial therapy for patients with infections caused by the pathogen. While membrane permeability, together with derepression of the intrinsic beta-lactamase gene, is the global prevailing mechanism of carbapenem resistance ...

Severe bloodstream infection due to KPC-producer e coli in a renal transplant recipient treated with the double-carbapenem regimen and analysis of in vitro synergy testing a case report [PDF]
Transplant recipients are at high risk of infections caused by multidrug resistant microorganisms. Due to the limited thera- peutic options, innovative antimicrobial combinations against carbape- nem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae causing severe infections
