Rapidly spreading Enterobacterales with OXA-48-like carbapenemases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology
Enterobacterales (mostly Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli) with OXA-48-like carbapenemases (e.g., OXA-48, -181, -232, -244) are undermining the global efficiency of carbapenem therapy. In the Middle East, North Africa, and some European countries,

To Be or Not to Be an OXA-48 Carbapenemase [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Since the first description of OXA-48, more than forty variants have been recovered from Enterobacterales isolates. Whereas some OXA-48-related enzymes have been reported as conferring similar resistance patterns, namely, the hydrolysis of carbapenems ...

The Global Ascendency of OXA-48-Type Carbapenemases [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2019
Surveillance studies have shown that OXA-48-like carbapenemases are the most common carbapenemases in Enterobacterales in certain regions of the world and are being introduced on a regular basis into regions of nonendemicity, where they are responsible for nosocomial outbreaks. OXA-48, OXA-181, OXA-232, OXA-204, OXA-

Comparative evaluation of a novel chromogenic medium (chromID OXA-48) for detection of OXA-48 producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2013
Comparative evaluation of the recently developed chromogenic culture medium chromID OXA-48 (bioMérieux) with chromID CARBA (bioMérieux) and SUPERCARBA showed that chromID OXA-48 and SUPERCARBA media have the highest sensitivity for detection of OXA-48 producing Enterobacteriaceae (91% and 93%) comparatively to chromID CARBA (21 %).

Role of Arginine 214 in the Substrate Specificity of OXA-48 [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2020
Increasing numbers of variants of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing class D β-lactamase OXA-48 are identified in Enterobacterales worldwide. Among them, OXA-181 and OXA-232 are of particular interest, as they differ from each other by a single amino acid substitution at position 214 (R in OXA-181 and S in OXA-232) that ...

Emergence of OXA-48-like Carbapenemase-Producing Escherichia coli in Baranya County, Hungary [PDF]

open access: yesAntibiotics
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (CREC) producing OXA-48-like carbapenemase was first detected in Hungary in 2022. The aim of the present study was to characterize such strains isolated in 2022–2025 in Baranya County, Hungary.

Genetic characteristics of OXA-48-producing Enterobacterales from China

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2021
: Objectives: In China, OXA-48-producing Enterobacterales have been identified sporadically, causing small-scale regional outbreaks. This study investigated the molecular epidemiology, transmission and evolution of OXA-48-producing Enterobacterales and ...

Pathogenicity of Clinical OXA-48 Isolates and Impact of the OXA-48 IncL Plasmid on Virulence and Bacterial Fitness [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
OXA-48 is the most common carbapenemase in Enterobacterales in Germany and one of the most frequent carbapenemases worldwide. Several reports have associated blaOXA–48 with a virulent host phenotype.

Detection of OXA-48-Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae using ChromID OXA-48 in Critical Care Patients in Egypt

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2017
Carbapenems are a class of beta-lactam antibiotics with broad spectrum of activity. They are often considered as a last resort in treatment of infections caused by multidrug resistant organisms.

Arising Prevalence of OXA-48 producer Escherichia coli and OXA-48 with NDM co-producer Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2019
Background/aim: This prospective study aimed to determine the presence of the most common carbapenemase genes, blaOXA-48, blaKPC, blaIMP, blaVIM and blaNDM on carbapenem resistant clinical K.pneumoniae and E.coli isolates. Materials and methods: Isolates
