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.

The “hidden” carbapenemase of Aeromonas hydrophila [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1996
It has been presumed that there are just two beta-lactamases in the motile Aeromonas species, a carbapenemase and a cephalosporinase, based on the premise that all beta-lactamases can be detected by hydrolysis of the chromogenic cephalosporin, nitrocefin.

Molecular diversity of extended-spectrum β-lactamases and carbapenemases, and antimicrobial resistance

open access: yesJournal of Intensive Care, 2020
Along with the recent spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria, outbreaks of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase-producing bacteria present a serious challenge to clinicians.

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.

Impact of Hospital Wastewater on the Occurrence and Diversity of Beta-Lactamase Genes During Wastewater Treatment with an Emphasis on Carbapenemase Genes: A Metagenomic Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
The diversity of beta-lactam antibiotic resistance genes, with particular emphasis on carbapenemase genes, during the treatment process at two wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with different levels of hospital wastewater inflow was investigated using ...

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
