Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) were almost nonexistent up to the 1990s, but are today encountered routinely in hospitals and other healthcare facilities in many countries including the United States. KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was the first to emerge and spread globally and is endemic in the United States, Israel, Greece, and

Capnophilic Enterobacteriaceae

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2017
Bacteria use bicarbonate as substrate for crucial metabolic reactions. We report the first case of bacteremia by capnophilic E. coli without the YadF gene (also known as CynT2 or Can2) that needs high concentrations of CO2 to non-enzymatically produce bicarbonate. This lack may also apply to previously reported capnophilic Enterobacteriaceae.

Overview of polymyxin resistance in Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2022
Polymyxin antibiotics are disfavored owing to their potential clinical toxicity, especially nephrotoxicity. However, the dry antibiotic development pipeline, together with the increasing global prevalence of infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria, have renewed clinical interest in these polypeptide antibiotics.

Esculin hydrolysis by Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1977
Literature reports disagree concerning esculin hydrolysis in the family Enterobacteriaceae. A total of 2,490 strains of the family were investigated for esculin hydrolysis by two methods, the esculin spot test and the PathoTec incubation strip, which measures constitutive enzyme, and five growth-supporting methods, which determine both constitutive and

The global epidemiology of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae

Virulence, 2017
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are an important and increasing threat to global health. Both clonal spread and plasmid-mediated transmission contribute to the ongoing rise in incidence of these bacteria.

Epidemiology of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Egyptian intensive care units using National Healthcare–associated Infections Surveillance Data, 2011–2017

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2020
To describe the epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) healthcare-associated infections (HAI) in Egyptian hospitals reporting to the national HAI surveillance system.

Molecular Mechanisms, Epidemiology, and Clinical Importance of β-Lactam Resistance in Enterobacteriaceae

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Despite being members of gut microbiota, Enterobacteriaceae are associated with many severe infections such as bloodstream infections. The β-lactam drugs have been the cornerstone of antibiotic therapy for such infections.

Present and Future of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Infections

Antibiotics, 2019
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have become a public health threat worldwide. There are three major mechanisms by which Enterobacteriaceae become resistant to carbapenems: enzyme production, efflux pumps and porin mutations.

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2017
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have emerged as a major threat. Commonly used antibiotics are generally inactive against CRE. Therefore, timely detection of CRE is of paramount importance. Among CRE, those producing carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamase enzymes (carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae) are particularly of concern because ...
