Investigating the Resistance of Klebsiella Pneumoniae Clinical Isolates Producing Carbapenemase and ESBL Enzymes to Colistin and Fosfomycin Antibiotics

 Introduction: A Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium, which is the most important species of the Klebsiella genus, mainly causes hospital infections. Moreover, it has a high resistance to most of the available antibiotics, which has caused concern among doctors all over the world. Therefore, the amount of antibiotic resistance and the effect of these antibiotics on Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates pr...

Frequency of Extended Spectrum Β-lactamase Producing Klebsiella Pnumoniae and Escherichia Coli Isolates

Extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) that mediate resistance to 3rd generation cephalosporins are now observed worldwide in all species of Enterobacteriaceae especially Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. ESBL producing organisms are responsible for nosocomial infections and may result in hospital outbreaks. Present study is a descriptive study. It was planned to determine the freq...

The prevalence and molecular characterization of extended-spectrum -lactamases-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates recovered from Kashan hospital university, Iran

Introduction and objective: Klebsiella is an opportunistic pathogen that is an important cause of nosocomial infections. The prevalence of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing strains and their resistance to betalactam antibiotics has had a daily increase. Because of the importance of these enzymes in Klebsiella pneumonia, this study was carried out to investigate it’s prevalence...

Identification of Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella oxytoca in Clinical Isolates in Tehran Hospitals, Iran by Chromogenic Medium and Molecular Methods

OBJECTIVES Production of carbapenemase, especially Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPC), is one of the antibiotic resistance mechanisms of Enterobacteriaceae such as Klebsiella oxytoca. This study aimed to investigate and identify KPC-producing K. oxytoca isolates using molecular and phenotypic methods. METHODS A total of 75 isolates of K. oxytoca were isolated from various clinical sam...
