Resistance and virulence features of hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae from bloodstream infections: Results of a nationwide Italian surveillance study

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Among Enterobacterales, Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is one of the major opportunistic pathogens causing hospital-acquired infections. The most problematic phenomenon linked to Kp is related to the dissemination of multi-drug resistant (MDR) clones ...

An Xpert screen to identify carbapenemases

Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2016
To prevent the spread of carbapenemases-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) active surveillance, contact isolation and cohorting infected patients should be practiced. Rectal swabs for the Xpert MDRO-assay of 32 patients were included. 71.85% were positive for targets incorporated into the MDRO-assay; whereas 28% were phenotypically not CRE and Xpert ...

Antarctic soil microbiomes encode structurally conserved and phylogenetically diverse beta‐lactamases

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
An integrative metagenomic framework combining sequence, structural, and functional inference reveals a phylogenetically diverse and structurally conserved repertoire of putative beta‐lactamases across Antarctic soil microbiomes, with predominance of class A and subclass B3 enzymes and limited but detectable associations with mobile genetic elements ...

NitroSpeed-carba NP test for rapid detection and differentiation between different classes of carbapenemases in Enterobacterales [PDF]

, 2020
A biochemical test (NitroSpeed-Carba NP test) was developed to identify carbapenemase production in Enterobacterales and to discriminate between the different types of clinically significant carbapenemases (Ambler classes A, B, and D).

Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

Carbapenemases: Partners in crime

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2013
Carbapenemases, β-lactamases that inactivate carbapenems and most β-lactam antibiotics, are most widely known for their ability to confer resistance to β-lactams. They include serine carbapenemases, such as the widespread KPC family of enzymes, and the metallo-β-lactamases that contain the IMP, NDM and VIM enzyme families acquired by Gram-negative ...

Isolation of carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms from samples of raw‐meat diets for dogs in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms are an emerging threat in veterinary medicine that also have zoonotic potential. However, little is known about the prevalence and risks of these organisms in pet food. We present the incidental finding of gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms within samples of raw meat diets for dogs in the United Kingdom ...

Molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii from Southern Brazil

Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção, 2021
Carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii has reached extremely high levels worldwide and class D OXA-type carbapenemases are the main associated mechanism.
