Detection of co-harboring OXA-58 and NDM-1carbapenemase producing genes resided on a same plasmid from an Acinetobacter pittii clinical isolate in China
Objective(s): Acinetobacter pittii has become an emerging opportunistic noscomial pathogen worldwide with multi-drug resistance. In the present study, an A. pittii strain was isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid sample harboring both OXA-58 and NDM-1carbapenemase producing genes. The mechanisms of carbapenem resistance of the A. pittii strain was investigated.Materials and Methods: Carbap...
متن کاملEmergence of NDM-1-producing Acinetobacter pittii in Brazil.
Sir, The New Delhi metallo-lactamase (NDM), initially reported in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli, is now disseminated worldwide mostly among Enterobacteriaceae [1]. The NDM carbapenemase has also been described in Acinetobacter baumannii, but only in sporadic cases in countries such as China, India, Egypt, Germany, Israel and, more recently, Brazil [1,2]. Noteworthy, recent studies ...
متن کاملA silent outbreak due to Klebsiella pneumoniae that co-produced NDM-1 and OXA-48 carbapenemases, and infection control measures
Objective(s): Infections due to carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae are associated with high morbidity and mortality. In this study, we report a hospital outbreak due to co-producing OXA-48 and NDM-1 K. pneumoniae clone. The aim of the study is to investigate the clonal relationship of strains, risk factors of outbreak and infection control measures.<em...
متن کاملNDM-1-producing Acinetobacter baumannii from Algeria.
Over the last decade, nosocomial infections with Acinetobacter baumannii have been described with an increasing trend toward multidrug resistance, mostly in intensive care units (ICUs) (6, 9, 11). The main mechanism of resistance to carbapenems in A. baumannii is the production of acquired OXA-type carbapenemases, which have been frequently identified worldwide and are clustered in three major ...
متن کاملKlebsiella pneumoniae Co-Producing NDM-5 and OXA-181 Carbapenemases, South Korea
To the Editor: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae are being reported worldwide. Travel, medical tourism, and cross-border transfer of patients might play a role in the spread of these bacteria (1,2). Klebsiella pneumoniae co-producing New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 5 (NDM-5) and oxacillinase 181 (OXA-181) carbapenemases was detected in South Korea in 2014. On April 13, a 75-year-old man ...
