چکیده

A clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was found to produce a clavulanic acid-inhibited extended-spectrum beta-lactamase with a pI of 6.4. PCR, cloning, and sequencing experiments showed that the corresponding bla(TEM-21) gene was part of a chromosomally located Tn801 transposon disrupted by an IS6100 element and adjacent to an aac(3)-II gene.

Evaluation of the Effects of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Expression of TEM Type Beta-Lactamase Genes in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of surgical-site infections and healthcare-associated infections in the bloodstream, and urinary tract. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have shown, to possess antibacterial features. The nanoparticles' status as emerging therapeutic elements has motivated investigators to assess the effects of iron nanoparticles on the expression of TEM type be...

Detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates of the international clonal complex 11 carrying the blaPER-1 extended-spectrum β-lactamase gene in Greece.

OBJECTIVES The extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) PER-1 initially disseminated among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains in Turkey. Despite reports from other European countries, such strains have not been detected in Greece until now. We describe the first bla(PER-1)-positive P. aeruginosa isolates from Greece and their genetic environment. METHODS From January 2008 to December 2009, 287 consec...

Isolation of an integron-borne blaVIM-4 type metallo-beta-lactamase gene from a carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate in Hungary.

The first integron-borne metallo-beta-lactamase gene was isolated in Hungary. The bla(VIM-4) gene is located on a class 1 integron that also carries a novel bla(OXA)-like gene. The integron is harbored by a serotype O12 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and shows high structural similarity to integrons isolated in Greece and Poland.

Background and Objective: Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important causative agents both in form of hospital acquired and community-acquired infections. This bacterium is one of the most prevalent pathogens that is isolated from hospitals and is associated with high mortality rates. The uprising trend of multi drug resistance among Klebsiella pneumoniae has limited the treatment optio...
