Risk Factors in Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Infections
Carbapenem resistance, which was rarely observed up until the recent years, is becoming increasingly more common among the Enterobacteriaceae family around the world. It is thought that specifying the risk factors for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections may be helpful to initiate the appropriate empirical therapy at an early phase ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Hospital premises generate wastewater containing a wide spectrum of contaminants, such as pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and pathogenic microorganisms, whilst plenty of them are classified under the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ΑRΒ) category.

Cephem Potentiation by Inactivation of Nonessential Genes Involved in Cell Wall Biogenesis of ß-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli [PDF]
Reversal of antimicrobial resistance is an appealing and largely unexplored strategy in drug discovery. The objective of this study was to identify potential targets for “helper” drugs reversing cephem resistance in Escherichia coli strains producing β ...

Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Diversity among the tailed-bacteriophages that infect the Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Complete genome sequences have been determined for 73 tailed-phages that infect members of the bacterial Enterobacteriaceae family. Biological criteria such as genome size, gene organization and gene orientation were used to place these phages into categories. There are 13 such categories, some of which are themselves extremely diverse.
