چکیده

There is an error in the penultimate sentence of the “Detection of blaNDM-1 positive isolates” subsection of the Results. The correct sentence is: These isolates were collected from 8 individual patients, consisting of 5 male (62.5%) and 3 female (37.5%) with a mean age of 29.7 years, including 2 infants (ECL-2, ECL-36). There is an error in Table 2, “Characteristics of blaNDM-1-positive E. cloacae.” Please see the corrected Table 2 here. There is an error in Table 3, “Antibiotic susceptibilities of blaNDM-1-positive E. cloacae and transconjugants (μg/mL).” Please see the corrected Table 3 here.

New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM) represents a serious challenge for treatment and public health. A carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli clinical strain WCHEC13-8 was subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility tests, whole genome sequencing and conjugation experiments. It was resistant to imipenem (MIC, >256 μg/ml) and meropenem (MIC, 128 μg/ml) and belonged to ST3835. bla NDM-1 was the only ...

New Delhi Metallo-beta lactamase (NDM-1) in Enterobacteriaceae: treatment options with carbapenems compromised.

BACKGROUND Carbapenems are among the few useful antibiotics against multidrug resistant gram negative bacteria particularly those with extended spectrum beta lactamase. However resistance to carbapenems occurs and is mediated by mechanisms like loss of outer membrane proteins and production of beta lactamase that is capable of hydrolyzing carbapenems. An alert issued in the UK in 2009 warned of...

Emergence 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 ...
