laboratory detection of carbapenemases in gram-negative bacteria
the nosocomial infections, caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria, are the most important cause of mortality throughout the world. one important mechanism against beta-lactam antibiotics is the production of beta-lactamases. enterobacteriaceae and non-fermentative bacteria, like pseudomonas aeruginosa and acinetobacter baumannnii may produce these enzymes. currently, there is no vaccine to pre...

متن کاملdissemination of carbapenemases producing gram negative bacteria in the middle east
the emergence and spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria, that hydolyze most β-lactams, including carbapenems, are a major concern of public health system worldwide, particularly in the middle east area. since the plasmids harboring resis- tance genes could be spread across other bacterial populations, detection of carbapenemase-producing organisms has become more problematic. these organis...
متن کاملPreservation of Acquired Colistin Resistance in Gram-Negative Bacteria.
Colistin-resistant mutants were obtained from 17 colistin-susceptible strains of Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli. The stability of colistin resistance in these mutants was investigated. Three of four colistin-resistant P. aeruginosa mutants recovered colistin susceptibility in colistin-free medium; however, colistin-susceptible revert...
