Complete Sequences of mcr-1-Harboring Plasmids from Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamase- and Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae.

چکیده
Here we completely sequenced four mcr-1-haboring plasmids, isolated from two extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and two carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates. The mcr-1-harboring plasmids from an E. coli sequence type 2448 (ST2448) isolate and two K. pneumoniae ST25 isolates were identical (all pMCR1-IncX4), belonging to the IncX4 incompatibility group, while the plasmid from an E. coli ST2085 isolate (pMCR1-IncI2) belongs to the IncI2 group. A nearly identical 2.6-kb mcr-1-pap2 element was found to be shared by all mcr-1-carrying plasmids.

Objective(s): Prompt detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) and carbapenemase-producing enterobacteriaceae is crucial for infection prevention and control strategies. The present study aimed to characterize the ESBL and carbapenemase genes among Enterobacter isolates from an Iranian inpatient population.Materials and Methods:...

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates are being increasingly reported, particularly from countries surrounding the Mediterranean area. We aimed to quantify the prevalence of carbapenemase- and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae in rectal swabs from hospitalized patients in a University hospital in Morocco, and to compare the performance of three scre...
متن کاملUse of ChromID extended-spectrum beta-lactamase medium for detecting carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.
ChromID extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) culture medium is routinely used for screening ESBL producers. This medium was tested for detecting carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates from a collection of reference strains and compared to the CHROMagar KPC culture medium previously evaluated for detecting KPC-producing isolates. Producers of IMP-, VIM-, and KPC-type carbapenemas...

Background: Multidrug resistance and production of extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) by enteric gram-negative rods in hospitals and community continue to be worsened. We aimed to characterize the multidrug resistance and determine the prevalence of ESBL production by clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae in southeast Iran. Methods: Gram-negative bacteria isolated from clinical samples of...
