In host evolution of beta lactam resistance during active treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteremia

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been declared a serious threat by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Here, we used whole genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate recurrent P. aeruginosa bloodstream infections

Molecular surveillance of carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa at three medical centres in Cologne, Germany

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen causing hospital-acquired infections. Carbapenem resistance in P. aeruginosa is either mediated via a combination of efflux pumps, AmpC overexpression, and porin loss, or through an acquired ...

A single Proteus mirabilis lineage from human and animal sources: a hidden reservoir of OXA-23 or OXA-58 carbapenemases in Enterobacterales

Scientific Reports, 2020
In Enterobacterales, the most common carbapenemases are Ambler’s class A (KPC-like), class B (NDM-, VIM- or IMP-like) or class D (OXA-48-like) enzymes. This study describes the characterization of twenty-four OXA-23 or OXA-58 producing-Proteus mirabilis ...

Five-year period evaluation of isolated agents and their resistance profiles in intensive care unit patients with malignancy

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2020
Introduction: Patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) are usually patients who deteriorated health condition and could have longer hospital stay compared to other patients. Hospital infections are more common in ICU patients.

Gram-Negative Bacteria’s Outer Membrane Vesicles

Infection & Chemotherapy, 2023
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spherical bilayered nanoparticles derived from the outer layer of Gram-negative bacteria. Bacteria communicate with nearby bacteria, their environment, and the cells of their host by secreting OMVs, which are essential for their survival.
