Dissemination of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacteriaceae and associated resistance determinants through global food systems

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2706-2727, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Antimicrobial agents are a critical component of modern healthcare systems, fulfilling a core function in patient care and improving individual patient outcomes and consequently overall public health. However, the efficacy of antimicrobial interventions is being consistently eroded by the emergence and dissemination of various antimicrobial ...

Plasmid-mediated novel blaNDM-17 gene encoding a Carbapenemase with enhanced activity in a sequence type 48 Escherichia coli strain [PDF]

, 2017
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have spread worldwide, leaving very few treatment options available. New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM) is the main carbapenemase mediating CRE resistance and is of increasing concern.

Emergence of New Delhi Metallo‐β‐Lactamase (NDM) Genes Detected from Clinical Strains of Escherichia coli Isolated in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The emergence and spread of carbapenem resistance in Gram‐negative bacilli such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa through the production of carbapenemases is a global phenomenon. It threatens patient care and leads to therapeutic impasses.

Dissection of Highly Prevalent qnrS1-Carrying IncX Plasmid Types in Commensal Escherichia coli from German Food and Livestock [PDF]

, 2021
Plasmids are mobile genetic elements, contributing to the spread of resistance determinants by horizontal gene transfer. Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistances (PMQRs) are important determinants able to decrease the antimicrobial susceptibility of ...

Genomic characterization of high‐risk Escherichia coli and Enterobacter hormaechei clones recovered from a single tertiary‐care hospital in Pakistan

Journal of Applied Microbiology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 3907-3914, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Aims Spread of carbapenem‐resistant Enterobacterales have become a global problem. We characterized extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL)‐producing Enterobacterales from urinary tract infections cases from Allied Hospital Faisalabad, Pakistan. Methods and Results Eleven (22%, 11/50) ESBL‐producing Enterobacterales (Escherichia coli; n = 10 and ...

Molecular Characterization of an Atypical IncX3 Plasmid pKPC-NY79 Carrying blaKPC-2 in a Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

, 2013
The IncX family of plasmids has recently been expanded to include at least four subtypes, IncX1-IncX4. The revised classification provides an opportunity for improving our understanding of the sequence diversity of the IncX plasmids and the resistance ...

Resistance to carbapenems in non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovars from humans, animals and food [PDF]

, 2018
Non-typhoidal serovars of Salmonella enterica (NTS) are a leading cause of food-borne disease in animals and humans worldwide. Like other zoonotic bacteria, NTS have the potential to act as reservoirs and vehicles for the transmission of antimicrobial ...
