Detection of metallo-β-lactamase gene blaIMP of Escherichia coli clinical isolates in Sanglah General Hospital Bali

Indonesia Journal of Biomedical Science, 2019
Background: Escherichia coli belong to the family of Enterobacteriaceae that are responsible as one of the leading cause of nosocomial infections. The emergence of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae presents therapeutic challenges for clinicians on choosing the correct type of antibiotics to prescribe.

Molecular characterization ofbla_IMP-5, a new integron-borne metallo-β-lactamase gene from anAcinetobacter baumanniinosocomial isolate in Portugal [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2002
Acinetobacter baumannii 65FFC, an imipenem-resistant clinical strain, isolated from the urine of a patient at the Coimbra University Hospital, Portugal, in 1998, produced a metallo-beta-lactamase with a calculated pI 9.3. The isolate was highly resistant to penicillins, broad-spectrum cephalosporins, including ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefepime ...

Genomic Characterization of Mutli-Drug Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Isolates: Evaluation and Determination of Ceftolozane/Tazobactam Activity and Resistance Mechanisms

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Resistance to ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a health concern. In this study, we conducted a whole-genome-based molecular characterization to correlate resistance patterns and β-lactamases with C/T resistance among multi-drug ...

Production of metallo-β-lactamase among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated in the State of Sergipe, Brazil

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2015
INTRODUCTION: Acquired production of metallo-β-lactamases is an important mechanism of resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The objective of this study was to investigate the production of metallo-β-lactamase and the genetic diversity among ceftazidime ...

Molecular heterogeneity ofbla_VIM-2-containing integrons fromPseudomonas aeruginosaplasmids encoding the VIM-2 metallo-β-lactamase [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2001
A bla(VIM-2) metallo-beta-lactamase determinant, identical to that previously identified in Pseudomonas aeruginosa COL-1 isolate from a French hospital, was detected on a 28-kb plasmid carried by a nosocomial isolate of P. aeruginosa from Verona, Italy.

Increased zinc levels facilitate phenotypic detection of ceftazidime-avibactam resistance in metallo-β-lactamase-producing Gram-negative bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Ceftazidime-avibactam is one of the last resort antimicrobial agents for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant, Gram-negative bacteria. Metallo-β-lactamase-producing bacteria are considered to be ceftazidime-avibactam resistant. Here, we evaluated a semi-
