Antimicrobial susceptibilities of clinical bacterial isolates from urinary tract infections to fosfomycin and comparator antibiotics determined by agar dilution method and automated micro broth dilution

Microbiology Spectrum
Uncomplicated bacteremic urinary tract infections (bUTIs) are common, often caused by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecalis, with most encounters treated empirically.

Prevalence and characterization of hybrid blaCTX-M among Escherichia coli isolates from livestock and other animals [PDF]

, 2015
This study investigated 248 extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli isolates from 2012 to 2013 for hybrid blaCTX-M genes. blaCTX-M genes were detected in 228 isolates of which 14 isolates were hybrid blaCTX-M positive (6 blaCTX-M-123, 6 ...

Identification of a novel chromosome-encoded fosfomycin resistance gene fosC3 in Aeromonas caviae

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundOwing to the rapid emerging of multidrug-, even pandrug-resistant pathogens, and lack of new antibiotics, the older antibiotic, fosfomycin, has been reused in recent years in the clinical practice, especially for treatment of uropathogen ...

Discovery of chlamydial peptidoglycan reveals bacteria with murein sacculi but without FtsZ [PDF]

, 2013
Chlamydiae are important pathogens and symbionts with unique cell biological features. They lack the cell-division protein FtsZ, and the existence of peptidoglycan (PG) in their cell wall has been highly controversial.
