Third-generation cephalosporin resistance in Shigella sonnei, Argentina.
Shigella sonnei resistant to cefotaxime (but not to ceftazidime) was isolated for the first time in stool samples from a pediatric patient with vomiting and bloody diarrhea in northern Argentina. Microbiologic and biochemical tests confirmed the presence of an extended spectrum beta-lactamase displaying an apparent isoelectric point value of 8.2.

متن کاملCharacterization of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase Genes of Shigella flexneri Isolates With Fosfomycin Resistance From Patients in China
BACKGROUND The emergence of fosfomycin resistance and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes is a serious threat to public health and a new challenge in shigellosis treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify fosfomycin resistance and characterize β-lactamase genes in fos-carrying isolates of Shigella flexneri from patients in China. METHODS A total of 263 S. flexneri isolates we...

Further confirmation was done by slide agglutination using specific antisera (Denka-Seiken, Tokyo, Japan). Antibiotic susceptibility testing was done...
متن کاملIn vitro emergence of carbapenem resistance in extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates.
Klebsiella pneumoniae is thought to be the most common species producing ESBLs, and almost 50% of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates produce ESBL in some countries [1]. Furthermore, antimicrobial co-resistance within ESBL-producing isolate communities limits the number of drugs that are effective against these strains, leaving carbapenems as the most reliable agents [2-3]. Carbapenem resistance can...
