Phenotypic Detection Of Metallo-beta-lactamase Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains Isolated From Burned Patients
Background and Objective: Metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-mediated resistance is an emerging threat in hospital isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. There is not enough information from Iran regarding the prevalence and the screening methods for such enzymes. The present study was undertaken to detect Metallo betalactamase in strains of P. aeruginosa isolated from burned patien...
متن کاملDescription of IMP-31, a novel metallo-β-lactamase found in an ST235 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain in Western Germany.
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to characterize a novel IMP-type metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) found in an MDR clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. METHODS The P. aeruginosa isolate NRZ-00156 was recovered from an inguinal swab from a patient hospitalized in Western Germany and showed high MICs of carbapenems. MBL production was analysed by Etest for MBLs, an EDTA combined disc ...

addition, both PVL-positive spa t034 isolates contained genes associated with hlb-converting phages, namely sak, chp and scn. Although we did not have detailed epidemiological information on all nine patients, it is notable that three of the patients in this study had recent exposure to pigs. In other settings, isolation of CC398 MRSA has been strongly associated with exposure to livestock, inc...
متن کاملdetection and genetic characterization of metallo-β-lactamase imp-1 and vim-2 in pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from different hospitals in kermanshah, iran
results among the 225 isolates, 33.7% (76/225) and 18.1% (41/225) were resistant to imipenem and meropenem, respectively. of the 76 imipenem-resistant p. aeruginosa strains, 45 (59.2%) were positive for mbls, 34 (75%) strains carried the blaimp-1 gene, and 1 (2.2%) strain carried the blavim-2 gene. conclusions our results showed that there was a high frequency of imp-1 positive p. aeruginosa in...
متن کاملEpidemiology and Characteristics of Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Metallo-β-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MPPA) is an important nosocomial pathogen that shows resistance to all β-lactam antibiotics except monobactams. There are various types of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) in carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa including Imipenemase (IMP), Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase (VIM), Sao Paulo metallo-β-lactamase (SPM), Germany imipenemase (...
