Identification of extended-spectrum, AmpC, and carbapenem- hydrolyzing beta-lactamases in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae by disk tests.

چکیده
Antibiotic disks with and without clavulanic acid, 3-aminophenylboronic acid, or EDTA were tested with a set of 55 Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli strains producing well-characterized extended-spectrum, AmpC, or carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamases. A relatively simple scheme was devised for distinguishing beta-lactamase types in clinical isolates with or without intact outer membrane porins.

Objective(s) Production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) by enteric bacteria continues to be a major problem in hospitals and community. ESBLs producing bacteria cause many serious infections including urinary tract infections, peritonitis, cholangitis and intra-abdominal abscess. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ESBLs producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiel...

Despite the discovery of novel beta-lactamases such as extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs), imported AmpC, and carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamases at least a decade ago, there remains a low level of awareness of their importance and how to detect them. There is a need to increase the levels of awareness of clinical laboratories about the detection of newer beta-lactamases. Therefore, a...

Abstract Background and Objective: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen causing a variety of infections including urinary tract infections, pneumonia, septicemia, wound infections and infections in the intensive care units. Since the ESBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains are increasingly causing urinary tract infections, we aim to assess antibiotic resistance pat...
