Comparison Between Phenotypic Confirmatory Test & Double Disc Synergy Test in Detection of Extended Spectrum b-Lactamases Producers Among Gram-Negative Bacilli

Chattagram Maa-O-Shishu Hospital Medical College Journal, 2017
Background: Extended-Spectrum b-Lactamases (ESBLs) producing bacteria are increasing in number and causing more severe infections because of their continuous mutation and multidrug resistance property which make its treatment difficult. Thus reliable, sensitive and low cost method to detect ESBLs producers, therefore, is of major interest.

Evaluation of a simple method for testing aztreonam and ceftazidime-avibactam synergy in New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase producing Enterobacterales.

PLoS ONE
NDM-producing carbapenem-resistant bacterial infections became a challenge for clinicians. Combination therapy of aztreonam and ceftazidime-avibactam is a prudent choice for these infections.

Detection of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Gram-negative organisms: hospital prevalence and comparison of double disc synergy and E-test methods

IMC Journal of Medical Science, 2018
Background and objectives: Emergence of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria is a major public health concern. Detection of multi drug resistant (MDR) ESBL producing organisms is necessary to prevent its spread and effective treatment.

Enhancing Phenotypic Detection of ESBL in AmpC co-producers by using Cefepime and Tazobactam [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Routine phenotypic methods employing clavulanate and third generation cephalosporins to detect ESBL are not promising for isolates that co-produce an inhibitor-resistant beta lactamase like AmpC.
