Clinical significance of extended - spectrum β - lactamases
www.expert-reviews.com ISSN 1478-7210 © 2008 Expert Reviews Ltd 10.1586/14787210.6.5.671 The potential options available for treating serious infections caused by enterobacteria include penicillins (with or without β-lactamase inhibitors), cephalosporins, aztreonam, carbapenems, fluoroquinolones and, in certain situations only, aminoglycosides and colistin. Recently, tigecycline has been added ...
متن کاملPrevalence of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases Genes in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
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)...
متن کاملEvaluation of the β-Lactamase Disk Test Method in the Detection of Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamases in Clinical Isolates of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background & Aims: The production of extended-spectrum-β-lactamases (ESBLs) is the main mechanism of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. The outbreak of isolates simultaneously possessing several resistance mechanisms to β-lactam antibiotics caused a decrease in sensitivity of the confirmatory tests for ESBL. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the β-lactamase disk test...

متن کاملdetection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) in escherichia coli
background escherichia coli (e. coli) species are able to produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) that cause high resistance to the beta-lactam antibiotics. therefore, determining the antibiotic susceptibility patterns in resistant organisms is necessary for suitable therapeutic approaches. patients and methods totally, 260 clinical isolates of e. coli were collected from hospitals in te...
