CRISPR-Cas13a-Based Assay for Accurate Detection of OXA-48 and GES Carbapenemases

open access: yesMicrobiology spectrum, 2023
Carbapenems are one of the last-resort antibiotics for defense against multidrug-resistant pathogens. Multiple nucleic acid amplification methods, including multiplex PCR, multiplex loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and multiplex RPAs, can ...

OXA-type carbapenemases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2006
In recent years, the number of class D beta-lactamases with carbapenem-hydrolysing properties has increased substantially. Based on amino acid sequence identities, these class D or OXA-type carbapenemases are divided into eight distantly related groups, and they are only remotely related to other class D beta-lactamases.

Prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases, AmpC, and carbapenemases in Proteus mirabilis clinical isolates

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Proteus mirabilis is an opportunistic pathogen, causing a variety of community-acquired and nosocomial illnesses. It poses a potential threat to patients via the production of β-lactamases, which decrease the efficacy of antimicrobial ...

Molecular Characterization of Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii with Special Reference to Carbapenemases: A Systematic Review

open access: yesInfection and Drug Resistance, 2022
Carbapenemases are β-lactamase enzymes that hydrolyze a variety of β-lactams including carbapenem and belong to different Ambler classes (A, B, D). These enzymes can be encoded by plasmid or chromosomal-mediated genes.

Occurrence of multi-carbapenemases producers among carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales and in vitro activity of combinations including cefiderocol, ceftazidime-avibactam, meropenem-vaborbactam, and aztreonam in the COVID-19 era

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2022
To evaluate the prevalence of multi-carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (EB) and the activity of cefiderocol (CFDC), meropenem-vaborbactam (MEV), ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA), and combinations of CZA plus aztreonam (ATM), MEV plus ATM and CFDC plus ...

Emerging carbapenemases in Gram-negative aerobes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Carbapenemases may be defined as β-lactamases that significantly hydrolyze at least imipenem or/and meropenem. Carbapenemases involved in acquired resistance are of Ambler molecular classes A, B, and D.
