Prevalence of Plasmid-mediated Quinolone Resistance and Its Association with Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase and AmpC Beta-lactamase in Enterobacteriaceae
BACKGROUND We investigated the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance and its association with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC beta-lactamase in Enterobacteriaceae. METHODS A total of 347 non-duplicated isolates of Enterobacteriaceae were collected between August and October 2006 from 2 hospitals. Qnr determinant screening was conducted using PCR amplification, a...
متن کاملPlasmid-mediated quinolone resistance in expanded spectrum beta lactamase producing enterobacteriaceae in Morocco.
INTRODUCTION Although independently acquired, plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance appears to be linked with extended-spectrum or AmpC-type beta-lactamases. Since no data are available in African countries, the prevalence of qnr genes at the University Hospital Ibn Rochd, Casablanca, Morocco, was investigated. METHODOLOGY Between October 2006 and March 2007, the following 39 randomly selecte...
متن کاملDetection of plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamase in Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common opportunistic pathogen for nosocomial infection. The aim of the study was to examine the phenotype, genotype and epidemiology of plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamases in E. coli. In total, 96 clinical isolates of repeated E. coli were collected from different hospitals between August and October 2012. Using a cefoxitin disk diffusion method to identify the ph...
متن کاملmultiplex pcr study of plasmid-mediated ampc beta-lactamase genes in clinical isolates of escherichia coli
background : ampc β-lactamases are important cephalosporinases chromosomally encoded in many of enterobacteriaceae and a few other organisms where they mediate resistance to cephalothin, cefazolin, cefoxitin and penicillins. the six different families of plasmid-mediated ampc β-lactamases have been described, but no phenotypic test can discriminate among them. ampc multiplex pcr has been succ...
متن کاملEmergence of ertapenem resistance in an Escherichia coli clinical isolate producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamase AmpC.
Escherichia coli isolate MEV, responsible for a bloodstream infection, was resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins, and ertapenem. Molecular and biochemical characterization revealed the production of a novel, chromosome-borne, extended-spectrum AmpC (ESAC) β-lactamase with a Ser-282 duplication and increased carbapenemase activity. This study demonstrates for the first time that chromosome-bo...
