Coexistence of SHV-4- and TEM-24-producing Enterobacter aerogenes strains before a large outbreak of TEM-24-producing strains in a French hospital.
In 1996, a monitoring program was initiated at the teaching hospital of Amiens, France, and carried out for 3 years. All extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacter aerogenes isolates recovered from clinical specimens were collected for investigation of their epidemiological relatedness by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PC...

A total of 73 isolates (57 Enterobacter cloacae and 16 Enterobacter agglomerans), recovered during an outbreak of bacteremia in the Campinas area, São Paulo, Brazil, were studied. Of these isolates, 61 were from parenteral nutrition solutions, 9 from blood cultures, 2 from a sealed bottle of parenteral nutrition solution, and one was of unknown origin. Of the 57 E. cloacae isolates, 54 were bio...
متن کاملCitrobacter diversus isolated from clinical material.
Forty-seven strains of Citrobacter diversus were isolated during a 12-month period from clinical material obtained from patients in a general hospital in Israel. The majority of cultures (38) were recovered from urine and wound discharges. There was one case of septicemia. The biochemical reactions of all cultures were typical for this species, except one that was anaerogenic, and they could be...
متن کاملNosocomial outbreak of gastroenteritis due to Salmonella senftenberg.
We describe a prolonged nosocomial outbreak of Salmonella senftenberg, an uncommon human pathogen. We detected 22 cases of infection due to S. senftenberg that occurred from March 1993 through November 1994 and involved 18 patients and four healthy employees. All infected persons had consumed food prepared by the hospital kitchen. The estimated attack rate for the period of the outbreak was 0.1...
