The Changing Epidemiology of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales
Objective Israeli hospitals were confronted with a major national outbreak of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) starting in 2006, caused predominantly by monoclonal Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ...

Rapid Screening for Carbapenem Resistant Organisms: Current Results and Future Approaches [PDF]
Carbapenem producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) is a major public health threat. A total of 120 carbapenem resistant E.coli (n=32) and K.pneumoniae (n=88) from blood stream infections were screened for the presence of carbapenem resistant genes KPC, NDM ...

Active surveillance for KPC-experiencereport [PDF]
Bacterial resistance to antimicrobials has increased over the years, but the importance of empirical investigation of these bacteria contributes to the prevention of spread within the institution. The Infection Control Comission Protocol has as surveillance for resistant organisms since 1996.In Brazil, Klebsiela pneumoniae carbapenemase enzyme (KPC ...

Emergence of KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Italy [PDF]
The emergence of KPC-producing K. pneumoniae has now become a global concern. KPC beta-lactamases are plasmid-borne and, like extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs), can accumulate and transfer resistance determinants to other classes of antibiotics.

Concomitant carriage of KPC-producing and non-KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST512 within a single patient [PDF]
Abstract Background KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae of clonal group 258 are prominent in healthcare settings in many regions of the world. The blaKPC gene is mostly carried by a multireplicon IncFIIk-IncFI plasmid suspected to be highly compatible and stable in this genetic background.

Characterization of Corosolic Acid as a KPC-2 Inhibitor That Increases the Susceptibility of KPC-2-Positive Bacteria to Carbapenems [PDF]
The emergence of KPC-producing Gram-negative bacteria in clinical practice highlights the need to search for novel antimicrobials and new anti-infection strategies. In this study, we constructed a laboratory KPC-2-positive strain, E. coli BL21(DE3) (pET28a-KPC-2) and identified the activity of KPC-2 in this strain.

KPC-producing Enterobacter aerogenes infection
Enterobacter is a common nosocomial microorganism and its carbapenem's resistance has increased. The management of these cases is unclear.We evaluated 16 patients with KPC-producing Enterobacter aerogenes infections, detailing the site of infection, therapy, clinical and epidemiological data.A retrospective and descriptive study.
