Title : Isolation of VIM - 2 - producing Pseudomonas monteilii clinical strains Disseminated 1 in a Tertiary Hospital in Northern Spain

چکیده
23 We describe the occurrence of blaVIM-2 in 10 carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas monteilii 24 strains isolated from different clinical samples in our hospital in Northern Spain. All the 25 blaVIM-2-harbouring P. monteilii isolates possessed a class 1 integron, with the cassette array 26 [intI1_blaVIM-2_aac(6’)-Ib_qacE1_sul1]. Our results show the emergence of VIM-227 producing multidrug-resistant species other than P. aeruginosa or P. putida in a Spanish 28 hospital. P. monteilii, though sporadically isolated, should also be considered as an important 29 MBLs reservoir. 30

متن کاملImipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains carry vim-type metallo-beta-lactamases isolated from intensive care unit, Shahid Beheshti Hospital, North of Iran
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the causing agent of many hospital infections and metallo-beta-lactamases (MBL) are being reported with increasing frequency. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of metallo-&beta-lactamases (MBL) and VIM-1 gene in multidrug-resistant strains of P. aeruginosa isolates and to compare the methods of phenotypic and molecular detection. Materia...
متن کاملفراوانی اینتگرونهای کلاس I و II در ایزولههای بالینی سودوموناس آئروژینوزا مولد متالوبتالاکتاماز
Background and Objective: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen. Evidence suggests that the incidence of enzyme-producing strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Metalo Beta Lactamases (MBL) is a major problem in the treatment of infections caused by this organism. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of class I and II integrons among metalobetalactamase pro...
متن کاملDissemination of VIM-2 producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST233 at tertiary care hospitals in Egypt
BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important nosocomial pathogen, commonly causing infections in immunocompromised patients. The aim of this study was to examine the genetic relatedness of metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) producing carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates collected from 2 tertiary hospitals in Cairo, Egypt using Multi Locus sequence typing (MLST). METHOD...
متن کاملIdentification of VIM-2-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Tanzania is associated with sequence types 244 and 640 and the location of blaVIM-2 in a TniC integron.
Epidemiological data on carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacteria on the African continent are limited. Here, we report the identification of VIM-2-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in Tanzania. Eight out of 90 clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa from a tertiary care hospital in Dar es Salaam were shown to harbor bla(VIM-2). The bla(VIM-2)-positive isolates belonged to two different...
