Use of Ancillary Carbapenemase Tests To Improve Specificity of Phenotypic Definitions for Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
ABSTRACT Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are a significant threat to public health. In 2015, CDC revised the surveillance definition for CPE to include all Enterobacteriaceae resistant to any carbapenem tested.

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,

Role of Gram‐Negative Bacterial Infections in Acute‐On‐Chronic Liver Failure

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a systemic disease characterised by an acute clinical deterioration of pre‐existing liver cirrhosis leading to multiple organ failure due to systemic inflammation. It may be triggered by the translocation of bacteria and bacterial compounds across the gut barrier.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Features of Klebsiella pneumoniae Harboring Carbapenemases in Egypt: OXA-48-Like Carbapenemases as an Investigated Model

open access: yes, 2020
This study aimed at the characterization of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates focusing on typing of the blaOXA-48-like genes. Additionally, the correlation between the resistance pattern and biofilm formation capacity of the carbapenem ...

Metabolism‐Based Biomarkers for Rapid Phenotypic Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
Metabolic differences emerging after antibiotic exposure provide rapid phenotypic signals of susceptibility and resistance. This review summarizes metabolic biomarkers for rapid phenotypic AST, associated with nutrient uptake, respiratory activity, metabolic reprogramming, and enzymatic function. ABSTRACT The accelerating global crisis of antimicrobial

Active-Site Druggability of Carbapenemases and Broad-Spectrum Inhibitor Discovery

open access: yes, 2019
Serine and metallo-carbapenemases are a serious health concern due to their capability to hydrolyze nearly all β-lactam antibiotics. However, the molecular basis for their unique broad-spectrum substrate profile is poorly understood, particularly for ...

Structure-Function Relationships of Class D Carbapenemases

open access: yes, 2016
Class D carbapenemases, also known as Carbapenem-Hydrolyzing class D β-Lactamases (CHDLs) are of increasingly high clinical relevance, as they have been found in various important human pathogens, such as Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae

Expression analysis of drug-resistant gene (blaOXA-51) in carbapenemases producing Acinetobacter baumannii treated with imipenem/sulbactam combination

open access: yes, 2022
Drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is a frightening reality. The aim of this study is to examine the expression profiles of blaOXA-51 gene in carbapenemases producing A. baumannii treated with imipenem/sulbactam combination.

Gut Microbiota as a Key Modulator in the Pathophysiology of Sepsis: SURVEIL Project

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Longitudinal profiling of 132 hospitalized patients reveals that age, colonization status, and sepsis interact to shape gut microbiota diversity and composition. Sepsis is associated with reduced alpha diversity, beta‐diversity shifts, functional predictions (methanogenesis, nitrate/sulfate respiration), and partial MDR overlap with bloodstream ...

Phage Therapy as an Alternative Strategy Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Phage therapy shows promising efficacy against MDR, XDR, and PDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections across different models and administration routes. Evidence highlights reduced mortality, bacterial clearance, and synergy with antibiotics, while emphasizing the need for standardized protocols and advanced delivery systems to support clinical ...
