Isolation of carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms from samples of raw‐meat diets for dogs in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms are an emerging threat in veterinary medicine that also have zoonotic potential. However, little is known about the prevalence and risks of these organisms in pet food. We present the incidental finding of gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms within samples of raw meat diets for dogs in the United Kingdom ...

ESBL Evaluation framework

, 2016
Extended-spectrum bèta-lactamases (ESBL)-producing bacteria have become increasingly common in animals and humans. The goal of the presented ESBL evaluation framework is to help policy makers to evaluate the effectiveness of possible interventions aimed to reduce ESBL levels in livestock.

Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of mcr‐Positive Enterobacteriaceae in Retail Meat in Thailand Following the Colistin Ban

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of mcr‐positive Enterobacteriaceae in retail meat in Thailand following the national ban on prophylactic colistin use in food producing animals. A total of 152 meat samples (103 chicken and 49 pork) were collected from supermarkets and open markets between July and September ...

Clinically Significant Infections in Surgical Mortality

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Clinically significant infections (CSIs) are a common complication identified in cases of surgical mortality, associated with prolonged hospital stays, unplanned escalation of care and increased risk of death. This study aimed to examine the burden of CSIs in surgical deaths in the Australian Capital Territory and identify ...

Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase and AmpC beta-lactamases producing gram negative bacilli isolated from clinical specimens at International Clinical Laboratories, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundExtended spectrum Beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC beta-lactamases (AmpC) are the common enzymes produced by gram negative bacilli, which are their main mechanisms of resistance to all generations of cephalosporins.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Children With Bloodstream Infections: A Population‐Based Study in Stockholm, Sweden

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We retrospectively evaluated trends in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in paediatric bloodstream infections and assessed changes in antimicrobial prescription patterns over a 20‐year period. Methods We analysed positive blood cultures from children admitted with suspected serious infection between 1998 and 2018.

ESBL- FROM PETRI DISH TO THE PATIENT

Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2006
Treatment of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing strains of Enterobacteriaceae has emerged as a major challenge in hospitalised as well as community based patients. Infections due to ESBL producers range from uncomplicated urinary tract infection to life threatening sepsis.

Carriage of antimicrobial‐resistant E. coli in urban stray cats (Felis catus)

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine, driven by the inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Companion animals may act as community reservoirs and sentinels for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria due to their close contact with humans and other animals.

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase production and multi-drug resistance among Enterobacteriaceae isolated in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Background The global emergence and spread of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) producing Enterobacteriaceae have been threatening the ability to treat an infection.

Isolation of ESBL-producing gram-negative bacteria and in silico inhibition of ESBLs by flavonoids

Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 2016
AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate nosocomial accounts of 426 extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing strains from 705 isolates of 9 pathogenic gram-negative bacteria in vitro. We analysed the genetic divergence of ESBLs by constructing a phylogenetic tree and modelled flavonoid inhibition of ESBLs with in silico molecular docking to determine ...
