Detection of carbapenemase production in Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas species by carbapenemase Nordmann–Poirel test [PDF]
Abstract PURPOSE: Multidrug-resistant organisms causing community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections are increasing at a dangerous rate. Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas species are an important source of concern since these organisms are not only resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics but also show cross ...

The Immaculate Carbapenemase Study [PDF]
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

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.

Carbapenemases on the move: it’s good to be on ICEs [PDF]
Abstract The evolution and spread of antibiotic resistance is often mediated by mobile geneticelements. Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are the most abundant conjugativeelements among prokaryotes. However, the contribution of ICEs to horizontal gene transferof antibiotic resistance has been largely ...

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.

First report of OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in Iran
[english] Carbapenem-resistant are increasingly reported worldwide and cause therapeutic problem in health care facilities. In this study 28 imipenem-resistant were examined for expression of carbapenemases by phenotypic and genotypic methods. Modified
