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.

Unique Diacidic Fragments Inhibit the OXA-48 Carbapenemase and Enhance the Killing of Escherichia coli Producing OXA-48 [PDF]
Despite the advances in β-lactamase inhibitor development, limited options exist for the class D carbapenemase known as OXA-48. OXA-48 is one of the most prevalent carbapenemases in carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections and is not susceptible to most available β-lactamase inhibitors. Here, we screened various low-molecular-weight compounds

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.

OXA-48-like carbapenemases: the phantom menace [PDF]
OXA-48-type carbapenem-hydrolysing class D β-lactamases are increasingly reported in enterobacterial species. To date, six OXA-48-like variants have been identified, with OXA-48 being the most widespread. They differ by a few amino acid substitutions or deletions (one to five amino acids).

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

Treatment of Infections by OXA-48-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) contribute significantly to the global public health threat of antimicrobial resistance. OXA-48 and its variants are unique carbapenemases with low-level hydrolytic activity toward carbapenems but no intrinsic activity against expanded-spectrum cephalosporins.

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

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.

Evaluation of a New Phenotypic OXA-48 Disk Test for Differentiation of OXA-48 Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Clinical Isolates [PDF]
ABSTRACT The current phenotypic methods for detecting carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) allow differentiation between class A and B carbapenemases, but they cannot confirm in a single test class D OXA-48 carbapenemase producers.

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.
