OXA-48-like carbapenemases: the phantom menace [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2012
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).

Evaluation of a New Phenotypic OXA-48 Disk Test for Differentiation of OXA-48 Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Clinical Isolates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2015
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

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2021
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.

Epidemic spread of OXA-48 beta-lactamase in Croatia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 2018
A dramatic increase in OXA-48 β-lactamase was observed recently not only in large hospital centres, but also in smaller suburban hospital centres in geographic areas bordering Croatia. The aim of the study was to analyse the epidemiology, the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and the routes of spread of OXA-48 carbapenemase in Croatia.Carbapenemase ...

Spread of OXA-48-Encoding Plasmid in Turkey and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2010
ABSTRACT Eighteen carbapenem-resistant, OXA-48-positive enterobacterial isolates recovered from Turkey, Lebanon, Egypt, France, and Belgium were analyzed. In most isolates, similar 70-kb plasmids carrying the carbapenemase gene bla OXA-48 were identified.

Discovery of Quercetin and Its Analogs as Potent OXA-48 Beta-Lactamase Inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae caused by OXA-48 β-lactamase is a growing global health threat and has rapidly spread in many regions of the world. Developing inhibitors is a promising way to overcome antibiotic resistance. However, there are

Concurrent interspecies and clonal dissemination of OXA-48 carbapenemase [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2015
Several isolates of four different carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae species were recovered from a patient hospitalized for 4 months in a teaching hospital in Madrid. These species comprised seven Klebsiella pneumoniae belonging to ST15, four Escherichia coli belonging to ST2531, two Serratia marcescens and one Citrobacter freundii.
