[KPC: Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase, main carbapenemase in Enterobacteriaceae].

Revista chilena de infectologia : organo oficial de la Sociedad Chilena de Infectologia, 2018
The dissemination of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae is currently considered a serious clinical problem due to the failure in the treatment of infections produced by them. Among the carbapenemases, the enzyme KPC has spread worldwide and has been identified in the main enterobacterial species related with healthcareassociated infections ...

Neonatal‐Onset Chronic Granulomatous Disease Presenting With Recurrent Culture‐Negative Meningitis: A Case Report and Diagnostic Considerations

Case Reports in Immunology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by defective phagocyte oxidative burst and may present in early life with severe or recurrent infections. We report a female infant born at 38 weeks’ gestation (birth weight 2700 g) who developed fever and presumed sepsis at 5 days of life, followed by multiple recurrent ...

Enterococcus hirae‐Mediated ZnO and CuO/ZnO Nanoparticles: Synergistic Antimicrobial Combinations Against MDR Pathogens

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The rapid emergence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) pathogens, particularly in hospital wastewater, poses a serious threat to public health and emphasizes the need for alternative antimicrobial strategies. In this study, Enterococcus hirae, an environmentally derived strain, was used for the first time in the extracellular green synthesis of zinc oxide ...

Insights of β‐Lactams Resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates: A Focus on Molecular Identification of Drug Resistance

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Klebsiella pneumoniae is associated with high antimicrobial resistance and is commonly isolated from colonization and healthcare‐associated infections (HAIs). This study is aimed at developing and validating molecular assays to detect resistance genes belonging to the bla family in resistant K. pneumoniae isolates.
