Natural antibiotic susceptibility of strains of the Enterobacter cloacae complex
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2001The natural susceptibility to 70 antibiotics of 104 strains of the Enterobacter cloacae complex was examined using a microdilution procedure in Isosensitest broth. One hundred and one clinical strains designated as 'E. cloacae' were identified as E. hormaechei (n=65), E. asburiae (n=20) and E. cloacae genospecies 1 or 2 (n=16).

Enterobacter cloacae Complex and CTX-M Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases in Algeria
Microbial Drug Resistance, 2022We evaluated the β-lactam resistance phenotypes of clinical and environmental strains of the Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) isolated from three Algerian hospitals. The first combination of API 20E, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS),

Enterobacter cloacae Complex: Clinical Impact and Emerging Antibiotic Resistance
Future Microbiology, 2012Species of the Enterobacter cloacae complex are widely encountered in nature, but they can act as pathogens. The biochemical and molecular studies on E. cloacae have shown genomic heterogeneity, comprising six species: Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter asburiae, Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter kobei, Enterobacter ludwigii and Enterobacter ...

Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy for Typing of Clinical Enterobacter cloacae Complex Isolates [PDF]
Members of the Enterobacter (E.) cloacae complex have emerged as important pathogens frequently encountered in nosocomial infections. Several outbreaks with E. cloacae complex have been reported in recent years, especially in neonatal units. Fast and reliable strain typing methods are crucial for real-time surveillance and outbreak analysis to detect ...

Antimicrobial resistance of Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates from the surface of muskmelons
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2019The increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among pathogenic and opportunistic pathogenic microorganisms is one of the main global public health problems. The consumption of food contaminated with such bacteria (ARB), especially of raw products, might result in the direct acquisition of ARB and in a spread of resistant bacteria along the food chain ...

Despite the importance of the Enterobacter cloacae complex as a nosocomial pathogen, little is known about the relative contribution of its single species and genotypes to its pathogenicity. We studied here the relationship between phylogenetically related strains and clinical infection sites.

Determination for Enterobacter cloacae based on a europium ternary complex labeled DNA probe
Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, 2011The fast detection and accurate diagnosis of the prevalent pathogenic bacteria is very important for the treatment of disease. Nowadays, fluorescence techniques are important tools for diagnosis. A two-probe tandem DNA hybridization assay was designed for the detection of Enterobacter cloacae based on time-resolved fluorescence.

Isolates of the Enterobacter cloacae complex induce apoptosis of human intestinal epithelial cells
Microbial Pathogenesis, 2010Strains of the Enterobacter cloacae complex are becoming increasingly important human pathogen. The aim of the study was to identify, by sequencing the hsp60 gene, the species of clinical isolates phenotypically identified as E. cloacae and to examine them for virulence-associated properties: the ability of adhesion, invasion to HEp-2 cells and the ...
