Evaluation of the K-SeT R.E.S.I.S.T. immunochromatographic assay for the rapid detection of KPC and OXA-48-like carbapenemases.
Sir, The worldwide emergence of carbapenemases is a major health issue leaving clinicians with few treatment options. Implementation of infection prevention and control (IPC) procedures relies on early detection of carbapenemase producers and distinction from other carbapenem resistance mechanisms. Various carbapenem hydrolysis methods allow detection of carbapenemase activity but do not differ...
متن کاملOXA-48-like carbapenemases: the phantom menace.
OXA-48-type carbapenem-hydrolysing class D β-lactamases are increasingly reported in enterobacterial species. To date, six OXA-48-like variants have been identified, with OXA-48 being the most widespread. They differ by a few amino acid substitutions or deletions (one to five amino acids). The enzymes hydrolyse penicillins at a high level and carbapenems at a low level, sparing broad-spectrum c...
متن کاملPerformance of "RESIST-3 O.K.N. K-SeT" immunochromatographic assay for the detection of OXA-48 like, KPC, and NDM carbapenemases in Klebsiella pneumoniae in Turkey.
In this study, the performance of the "RESIST-3 O.K.N. K-SeT" (Coris BioConcept, Gembloux, Belgium) immunochromatographic assay was evaluated in 132 Klebsiella pneumoniae comprising 102 carbapenem resistant and 30 carbapenem susceptible isolates. Genotypically known isolates of Gram negative bacteria (n=22) including various species were also tested by the assay as controls. The isolates tested...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of a novel chromogenic medium (chromID OXA-48) for detection of OXA-48 producing Enterobacteriaceae.
Comparative evaluation of the recently developed chromogenic culture medium chromID OXA-48 (bioMérieux) with chromID CARBA (bioMérieux) and SUPERCARBA showed that chromID OXA-48 and SUPERCARBA media have the highest sensitivity for detection of OXA-48 producing Enterobacteriaceae (91% and 93%) comparatively to chromID CARBA (21 %). The chromID OXA-48 has the highest specificity, with 100%, as c...
متن کاملCharacterization of Enterobacteriaceae producing OXA-48-like carbapenemases in the UK.
OBJECTIVES To characterize UK clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae producing OXA-48-like carbapenemases and to compare their resistance plasmids. METHODS Twenty-six enterobacteria producing OXA-48-like enzymes were studied. These were from 22 diverse hospitals in the UK. Isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were assigned to clonal lineages by multilocus sequence typing. C...
