Structural and Functional Aspects of Class A Carbapenemases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.

The Immaculate Carbapenemase Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
ABSTRACT Carbapenemase-producing organisms, or CPOs, are Gram-negative pathogens that produce a transmissible carbapenemase and are typically resistant to most (sometimes all) antibiotics. We now face a global CPO pandemic of high mortality. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Microbiology , Karlowsky

Difference in Susceptibility Between Carbapenemase- and Non–Carbapenemase-Producing Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology, 2021
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) remain among the most urgent infectious threats according to the CDC Threats Reports. Although focus has often been placed on carbapenemase-producing phenotypes, there is increasing interest in distinguishing the optimal treatment and outcomes of carbapenemase-producing (CP) and non ...

In vitro Activity of Pentamidine Alone and in Combination With Aminoglycosides, Tigecycline, Rifampicin, and Doripenem Against Clinical Strains of Carbapenemase-Producing and/or Colistin-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Enterobacteriaceae cause different types of community- and hospital-acquired infections. Moreover, the spread of multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae is a public health problem and the World Health Organization pointed them among the pathogens in which

Carbapenemases

open access: yes, 2019
Carbapenems are usually regarded as the last treatment option for serious infections caused by Gram-negative and Gram-positive microorganisms. Although they are stable to hydrolysis by most β- lactamases, their usage as the last resort antbiotics was seriously compromised by the appearance of carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzymes called carbapenemases.
