Occurrence of extended-spectrum and AmpC beta-lactamases in bloodstream isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae: isolates harbor plasmid-mediated FOX-5 and ACT-1 AmpC beta-lactamases.
We tested 190 Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream isolates recovered from 189 patients in 30 U.S. hospitals in 23 states to determine the occurrence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC beta-lactamase producers. Based on growth inhibition by clavulanic acid by disk and MIC test methods, 18 (9.5%) of the isolates produced ESBLs. Although the disk diffusion method with standard break...

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)...

Since ABRAHAM and CHAIN') reported the production of beta((l)-lactamase by Escherichia coli, penicillinases have been shown to play an important role in the resistance of organisms against (3lactam antibiotics2.3). In many cases, the 46lactamases of Gram-negative bacteria have been shown to be mediated by R plasmids'), in contrast to chromosomally encoded drug resistance'). 46-Lactamases of Pro...
متن کاملOccurrence of extended-spectrum and AmpC β-lactamases in multiple drug resistant Salmonella isolates from clinical samples in Lagos, Nigeria
PURPOSE Salmonella spp. are important foodborne pathogens exhibiting increasing resistance to antimicrobial drugs. Resistance to broad-spectrum β-lactams, mediated by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC β-lactamase enzymes is fast spreading and has had negative impacts on the clinical outcomes, particularly on third-generation cephalosporins. This study investigated the carriage of Am...

Recently, tigecycline has been added ...
