Prevalence of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases Genes in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen resistant to various antibiotics. The aim of the present study was to study resistant patterns in clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa, classify them into pandrug resistance (PDR), extensive drug resistance (XDR) and multidrug resistance (MDR)...

www.expert-reviews.com ISSN 1478-7210 © 2008 Expert Reviews Ltd 10.1586/14787210.6.5.671 The potential options available for treating serious infections caused by enterobacteria include penicillins (with or without β-lactamase inhibitors), cephalosporins, aztreonam, carbapenems, fluoroquinolones and, in certain situations only, aminoglycosides and colistin. Recently, tigecycline has been added ...
متن کاملdetection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) in escherichia coli
background escherichia coli (e. coli) species are able to produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) that cause high resistance to the beta-lactam antibiotics. therefore, determining the antibiotic susceptibility patterns in resistant organisms is necessary for suitable therapeutic approaches. patients and methods totally, 260 clinical isolates of e. coli were collected from hospitals in te...
متن کاملEpidemiology and genetics of CTX-M extended-spectrum β-lactamases in Gram-negative bacteria
CTX-M enzymes, the plasmid-mediated cefotaximases, constitute a rapidly growing family of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) with significant clinical impact. CTX-Ms are found in at least 26 bacterial species, particularly in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis. At least 109 members in CTX-M family are identified and can be divided into seven clusters based on thei...
متن کامل[The widening challenge of extended spectrum β-lactamases].
Since 1980, the prescription of new semi-synthetic molecules of third generation cephalosporins changed the course of modern medicine. However, the acquired resistance against these antibiotics was rapidly developed with the production of extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) (TEM and SHV types) disseminated mainly by nosocomial Klebsiella pneumoniae clones. Since around 2000, we are facing a w...
