Clinical outcomes of Enterobacteriaceae infections stratified by carbapenem MICs. [PDF]
J Clin Microbiol, 2015 ABSTRACT The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) lowered the MIC breakpoints for meropenem and imipenem from 4 mg/liter to 1 mg/liter for Enterobacteriaceae in 2010. The breakpoint change improves the probability of pharmacodynamic target attainment and eliminates the need for microbiology ...

Management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2019 Carbapenem resistance is defined as in vitro non-susceptibility to any carbapenem and/or documented production of a carbapenemase. This feature has rapidly spread worldwide among clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae, mostly Klebsiella spp., and is associated with diverse molecular mechanisms. Carbapenem resistance is often associated with resistance

Beta-lactamases in Enterobacteriaceae infections in children [PDF]
Journal of Infection, 2016 Multi-drug resistance in Gram negative bacteria, particularly in Enterobacteriaceae, is a major clinical and public health challenge. The main mechanism of resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is linked to the production of beta-lactamase hydrolysing enzymes such as extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL), AmpC beta-lactamases and carbapenemases ...

In vitro activity of tigecycline against local clinical isolates of some Enterobacteriaceae
Zagazig Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2020 Infectious diseases that Enterobacteriaceae cause are spreading on a wide scale. Examples of these infections are gastrointestinal tract infections, meningitis, pneumonia, septicemia, urinary tract infections, and wound infections. Antibiotic resistance

Treatment of Infections by OXA-48-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018 Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) contribute significantly to the global public health threat of antimicrobial resistance. OXA-48 and its variants are unique carbapenemases with low-level hydrolytic activity toward carbapenems but no intrinsic activity against expanded-spectrum cephalosporins.

Treating infections caused by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014 Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) have spread worldwide, causing serious infections with increasing frequency. CPE are resistant to almost all available antibiotics, complicating therapy and limiting treatment options. Mortality rates associated with CPE infections are unacceptably high, indicating that the current therapeutic approaches

Colistin Resistance among Enterobacteriaceae Isolated from Clinical Samples in Gaza Strip
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2021 Bacterial infections, especially drug-resistant infections, are a major global health issue. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Enterobacteriaceae and the lack of new antibiotics have worrisome prospects for all of humanity.

Characterization of two polyvalent phages infecting Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractBacteriophages display remarkable genetic diversity and host specificity. In this study, we explore phages infecting bacterial strains of the Enterobacteriaceae family because of their ability to infect related but distinct hosts. We isolated and characterized two novel virulent phages, SH6 and SH7, using a strain of Shigella flexneri as host ...
