Tracking inter-institutional spread of NDM and identification of a novel NDM-positive plasmid, pSg1-NDM, using next-generation sequencing approaches [PDF]
Owing to gene transposition and plasmid conjugation, New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM) is typically identified among varied Enterobacteriaceae species and STs. We used WGS to characterize the chromosomal and plasmid molecular epidemiology of NDM transmission involving four institutions in Singapore.Thirty-three Enterobacteriaceae isolates (collection

Clonal Diversity and High Prevalence of Oxa-23 among Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates in Egypt [PDF]
Background and Aim: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is becoming a global threat especially to hospitalized patients. We aimed to address the magnitude of CRAB causing healthcare-associated infections in patients admitted to a tertiary

A silent outbreak due to Klebsiella pneumoniae that co-produced NDM-1 and OXA-48 carbapenemases, and infection control measures [PDF]
Objective(s): Infections due to carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae are associated with high morbidity and mortality. In this study, we report a hospital outbreak due to co-producing OXA-48 and NDM-1 K. pneumoniae clone. The aim of the study is

Unlocking Zn‐Ion Diffusion in Disordered Rocksalt Cathodes for Nonaqueous Zn‐Ion Batteries
Developing viable cathode materials for multivalent battery chemistries is challenging due to the intrinsic sluggish diffusion kinetics. A disordered rocksalt oxide host was found to “lock” the cycling of zinc ions from nonaqueous electrolyte. We unlock zinc ion diffusion in the disordered rocksalt by introduction of a percolating vacancy network ...

The roles of mitochondrial tRNA mutations in non-dystrophic myotonias
According a recent report by Heidari et al., a mutational screening for candidate pathogenic mitochondrial tRNA (mt-tRNA) mutations were performed in 45 Iranian patients with non-dystrophic myotonia (NDM) and 70 control subjects.

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 ...
