Cluster-dependent colistin hetero-resistance inEnterobacter cloacaecomplex [PDF]
Aims of this study were to: (i) evaluate whether the cluster membership could have an impact on hetero-resistance phenotype to colistin in the Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC); and (ii) determine the genetic mechanism of colistin hetero-resistance in ECC.A collection of 124 clinical isolates belonging to 13 clusters were used to analyse the hetero ...

Molecular Characterization of KPC-2-Producing Enterobacter cloacae Complex Isolates from Cali, Colombia [PDF]
The Enterobacter cloacae complex is an emerging opportunistic pathogen whose increased resistance to carbapenems is considered a public health problem. This is due to the loss of efficacy of beta-lactam antibiotics, which are used as the first treatment option in the management of infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The objective of this study

Enterobacter cloacae is mainly responsible for sepsis, urethritis, and respiratory tract infections. These bacteria may affect the transcription of the host and particularly their immune system by producing changes in their epigenetics.

FRI-2 carbapenemase-producing Enterobacter cloacae complex in the UK [PDF]
Detection of rarer carbapenemases is challenging, as it requires molecular assays with comprehensive coverage or the use of phenotypic methods for the detection of carbapenemase activity. We describe a new class A carbapenemase, FRI-2, in an Enterobacter cloacae complex isolate following implementation of an in-house multiplex PCR for the detection of '

Isolation and characterization of bacteriophages for carbapenem resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex strains. [PDF]
Abstract There has been an increased interest in phage therapy for the treatment of antimicrobial resistant bacterial infections due to the decreasing effectiveness of antibiotics. While phage therapy has been successful, it often requires time to isolate and characterize phages suitable for phage therapy.

Polymyxin resistance in Enterobacter cloacae complex in Brazil: phenotypic and molecular characterization. [PDF]
Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates have been reported as an important nosocomial multidrug resistance pathogen. In the present study, we investigated antimicrobial susceptibility and the colistin-resistance rates, their genetic determinants and clonality among clinical E. cloacae complex isolates from different Brazilian states. For this, an initial
