Community Transmission of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase
land. Furthermore, Ct. felis often feeds on humans. Clinicians encountering patients with fever or rash (or both) and a history of cat contact or flea bites should consider a diagnosis of R. felis. Laboratory confirmation of infection is not easy, but in vitro culture of R. felis, and hence material for a serologic assay for the diagnosis of human R. felis infections, has recently been describe...
متن کاملProportion of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in community setting in Ngaoundere, Cameroon
BACKGROUND There is no information regarding the resistance mechanisms of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae in community setting in Cameroon. The current study aimed to determine the proportion of ESBLs in Enterobacteriaceae isolated in the community and to analyse some risk factors associated with ESBL carriage. METHODS Faecal samples were collected from 208 d...
متن کاملExtended-spectrum ß-lactamase production in Shigella flexneri.
Emergence of multidrug-resistant strains of Shigella is a growing concern across the globe. Third-generation cephalosporins are used for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant Shigellae. However, resistance to these cephalosporin antibiotics due to extended-spectrum ß-lactamases, has emerged as a new problem. So far extended-spectrum ß-lactamases producing Shigella has not been repor...
متن کاملPrevalence of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli in agricultural fields of Gorgan district using bovine manure
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of ESBL-producing E. coli in agricultural fields of Gorgan district, Golestan province. Soil samples were collected from 20 agricultural fields, half of them treated with chemical fertilizers and the rest with bovine manure. Two samples, from surface and a depth of 15cm, were taken. After enrichment and culture onto MacConkey agar, Pink colored...
متن کاملEvaluation of a chromogenic agar medium for the detection of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
AIM To compare the performance of a new chromogenic agar medium CHROMagar ESBL (KC-ESBL) to chromID ESBL (SB-ESBL) for the detection and presumptive identification of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae directly from clinical specimens. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 256 specimens were screened for ESBL producers. Also, the genotypes of the ESBLs and plasmid-medi...
