Outbreak of TEM-24-producing Enterobacter aerogenes in an intensive care unit and dissemination of the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase to other members of the family enterobacteriaceae.
We report an outbreak of Enterobacter aerogenes in an intensive care unit (ICU) and two medicine departments that produced the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase TEM-24, which was difficult to detect by disk agar diffusion. The strains were compared by DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism after pulsed-field gel electrophoresis following cleavage with XbaI. This typing method indicated tha...
متن کاملExtended-spectrum beta-lactamase TEM-24 in an Aeromonas clinical strain: acquisition from the prevalent Enterobacter aerogenes clone in France.
The TEM-24 extended-spectrum -lactamase (ESBL), initially characterized in Klebsiella pneumoniae (3), is currently the predominant ESBL in France (4). This could be related to the spread of a TEM-24-producing Enterobacter aerogenes clone present in most French hospitals (1) but also found in Belgium (5) and Spain (2). TEM-24 enzyme has been recovered from an increasing number of species of the ...
متن کاملClonal Dissemination of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL)-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in a Korean Hospital
In this study, we investigated the molecular characteristics of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates that were recovered from an outbreak in a Korean hospital. A new multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for K. pneumoniae based on five housekeeping genes was developed and was evaluated for 43 ESBL-producing isolates from an outbreak as well as 38 s...
متن کاملCoexistence 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...
متن کاملRisk factor analysis for extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacter cloacae bloodstream infections in central Taiwan
BACKGROUND Enterobacter cloacae (E.cloacae) bloodstream infection (EcBSI) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality, with an increasing incidence in our hospital. We wanted to elucidate the risk factors of mortality among patients with ESBL-positive EcBSI in central Taiwan. METHODS We ordered the clinical and microbiological data of cases with diagnosis of EcBSI, and analyzed the isola...
