ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY OF ENTEROBACTERIACAEISOLATED FROM INTESTINAL MICROBIOTA OF RESIDENTS OF THE REPUBLIC OF GUINEA AND RUSSIA (SAINT PETERSBURG)

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2018
It is known that resistant Enterobacteriacaestrains can be a part of human microbiota. While colonizing the body of a healthy person, resistant strains do not cause diseases, while the healthy person becomes carrier and source of such strains or the ...

Alchornea Cordifolia (Christmas Bush) Leaves Extract Shows Activity Against Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Klebsiella Pneumoniae That Cause Multi-Drug Resistant Urinary Tract Infections [PDF]

, 2021
Klebsiella pneumoniae are one of the most common cause of multi-drug resistant urinary tract infections such as cystitis and pyelonephritis. Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases are plasmid-mediated enzymes commonly found in the Klebsiella pneumoniae and ...

Extended spectrum beta-lactamase and fluoroquinolone resistance genes among Escherichia coli and Salmonella isolates from children with diarrhea, Burkina Faso

BMC Pediatrics, 2020
Background The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria (MDR) has become a major public health concern worldwide. This resistance is caused by enzymes-mediated genes (i.e., extended spectrum beta-lactamases) that are common in ...

Boronic Acid Inhibitors of β‐Lactamases: A Promising Strategy Against Antimicrobial Resistance

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical threat to global health, mostly due to the proliferation of β‐lactamases, a class of enzymes responsible for the inactivation of β‐lactam antibiotics. Among the most promising strategies to restore β‐lactam efficacy is the use of β‐lactamase inhibitors (BLIs), with boronic acid ...
