Dissemination of ESBL and Qnr determinants in Enterobacter cloacae in Algeria.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence and diversity of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolates collected from Algerian hospitals and to verify the association with qnr genes. METHODS MICs were determined by Etest for isolates giving positive double-disc synergy tests, and all isolates were screened by PCR and sequenced, resp...

متن کاملPhenotypic characterization of ESBL producing Enterobacter cloacae among children
OBJECTIVE The emergence of ESBL producing Enterobacter cloacae in clinical isolates is posing a serious threat for treating nosocomial infections. The aim of the study was to determine the frequency of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacter cloacae and to compare the phenotypic methods used for the characterization of ESBL producing strains. METHODOLOGY This cross section...
متن کاملPrevalence and characterization of extended spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacter cloacae strains in Algeria.
INTRODUCTION Expended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacter cloacae is an important nosocomial pathogen. In this study, the prevalence and the molecular epidemiology of ESBL producing E. cloacae strains isolated from various hospitals in Annaba, Algeria were investigated. METHODOLOGY The study involved 63 isolates of E. cloacae obtained during 2009 at the four hospitals in Annaba...
متن کاملA rapid and simple method to detect ESBL in Enterobacter cloacae based on MIC of cefepime.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to identify a rapid and simple phenotypic method for extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) detection in Enterobacter cloacae. METHODS A total of 79 consecutive, non-repeated samples of E. cloacae were evaluated. Four phenotypic methods were applied for ESBL detection, results were compared to multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as the gold standard ...
