Antibiotic Treatment of Infections Caused by AmpC-Producing Enterobacterales [PDF]
: AmpC enzymes are a class of beta-lactamases produced by Gram-negative bacteria, including several Enterobacterales. When produced in sufficient amounts, AmpCs can hydrolyze third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs) and piperacillin/tazobactam, causing ...

Molecular mechanisms of tigecycline-resistance among Enterobacterales
The global emergence of antimicrobial resistance to multiple antibiotics has recently become a significant concern. Gram-negative bacteria, known for their ability to acquire mobile genetic elements such as plasmids, represent one of the most hazardous ...

Colistin Resistance in Enterobacterales Strains – A Current View [PDF]
Abstract Colistin is a member of cationic polypeptide antibiotics known as polymyxins. It is widely used in animal husbandry, plant cultivation, animal and human medicine and is increasingly used as one of the last available treatment options for patients with severe infections with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli.
