Clinical isolates of Salmonella enterica serovar Agona producing NDM-1 metallo-β-lactamase: first report from Pakistan.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report two cases of infantile diarrhea due to multidrug-resistant, NDM-1 metallo-β-lactamase-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Agona from Pakistan. This study alerts toward possible risk of NDM-1 transmission to enteric fever pathogens and encourages microbiologists to consider active screening of carbapenem resistance in nontyphoidal Salmonella isolates.

We characterized 9 New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (5 Klebsiella pneumoniae, 2 Escherichia coli, 1 Enterobacter cloacae, 1 Salmonella enterica serovar Senftenberg) isolates identified in the United States and cultured from 8 patients in 5 states during April 2009-March 2011. Isolates were resistant to β-lactams, fluoroquinolones, and aminoglycosides, demonstrated MICs...
متن کاملEmergence of New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase, Austria
To the Editor: Extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Enter-obacteriaceae strains have emerged as a major public health problem throughout the world, particularly in India and Pakistan. The widespread use of carbapenems, the only agents reliably active against these bacteria, resulted in the emergence of a new resistance mechanism. New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM-1) was fi rst detected in a...

Whole-genome sequencing of non-H(2)S-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. enterica serovar Infantis isolates from poultry meat revealed a nonsense mutation in the phsA thiosulfate reductase gene and carriage of a CMY-2 β-lactamase. The lack of production of H(2)S might lead to the incorrect identification of S. enterica isolates carrying antimicrobial resistance genes.
متن کاملEmergence of Acinetobacter pittii Harboring New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase Genes in Daejeon, Korea
Carbapenemase production has been reported worldwide in gram-negative bacteria, including Acinetobacter species. We detected carbapenemase-producing Acinetobacter pittii in clinical isolates in Daejeon, Korea. Twenty-one ertapenem-resistant A. pittii isolates screened with a disk diffusion method were characterized by using the Epsilon test, four multiplex PCR assays, and a multilocus sequence ...
متن کاملTwo different extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in one of the first ESBL-producing salmonella isolates in Poland.
Two extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing salmonella isolates, Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, were analyzed. Both isolates produced the CTX-M-3 ESBL; however, their bla(CTX-M-3) genes were located on different plasmids. The serovar Typhimurium isolate also expressed another ESBL, SHV-2a, and probably the two ESBL genes had been a...
