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

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

Predominance of OXA-48 carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in tertiary hospital in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina [PDF]
Klebsiella pneumoniae, a member of the Enterobacteriaceae family, demonstrates an increasing trend of resistance to carbapenems and is a common cause of both hospital- and community-acquired infections.

OXA-48-like carbapenemases in Proteus mirabilis – novel genetic environments and a challenge for detection [PDF]
OXA-48-like enzymes represent the most frequently detected carbapenemases in Enterobacterales in Western Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. In contrast to other species, the presence of OXA-48-like in Proteus mirabilis leads to an unusually ...

Multicenter evaluation of ceftazidime-avibactam use in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infections in OXA-48 endemic regions [PDF]
Data in the literature on the use of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infections (CRKP-BSIs) are limited especially in OXA-48 (Oxacillinase-48) predominant regions.

Spread of the blaOXA-48/IncL Plasmid within and between Dogs in City Parks, France
The blaOXA-48/IncL plasmid is increasingly reported in dogs, even in the absence of carbapenem use in animals. In this study, we witnessed the spread of this plasmid within and between dogs sharing the same relaxing area.

Discovery of bla(OXA-199), a chromosome-based bla(OXA-48)-like variant, in Shewanella xiamenensis. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: bla(OXA-48) is a globally emerging carbapenemase-encoding gene. The progenitor of bla(OXA-48) appears to be a Shewanella species. The presence of the bla(OXA-48)-like gene was investigated for two Shewanella xiamenensis strains.

Characterization of OXA-48-producing Klebsiella oxytoca isolates from a hospital outbreak in Tunisia
Objective: There is very limited information about OXA-48-producing Klebsiella oxytoca. The aim of this study was to describe the phenotypic and molecular characterization of OXA-48-producing K.
