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

Epidemic spread of OXA-48 beta-lactamase in Croatia
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 ...

Emergence of OXA-48-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Taiwan
The isolation of OXA-48-producing Enterobacteriaceae has increased dramatically in Mediterranean countries in the past 10 years, and has recently emerged in Asia. Between January 2012 and May 2014, a total of 760 carbapenem non-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae (CnSKP) isolates were collected during a Taiwan national surveillance.

Class D OXA-48 Carbapenemase in Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacteria, Senegal [PDF]
To the Editor: Class D OXA β-lactamases are characterized as penicillinases that can hydrolyze oxacillin and cloxacillin and are poorly inhibited by clavulanic acid and EDTA. OXA-48 is one of the few members of this family to possess notable carbapenem-hydrolyzing activity (1). First described in 2004 in Turkey, OXA-48 has recently started to spread in

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

Rapid and reliable detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) is crucial for prompt treatment and infection control. Most assays target the primary four enzymes (KPC, OXA-48-like, VIM, and NDM), often missing less common variants (e.g ...
