متن کاملExtended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenemase-producing Aeromonas species in wild animals from Portugal.
AeromonAs are Gram-negative, facultative-anaerobic, non-sporeforming, glucose-fermenting, oxidaseand catalase-positive rods (Martin-Carnahan and Joseph 2005). Apart from fish, which are widely reported hosts for Aeromonads, insects, crustaceans, reptiles, birds and mammals were also found to harbour Aeromonas species, both in healthy and disease state (Pearson and others 2000, Turutoglu and oth...

متن کاملEmergence of VIM-producing Aeromonas caviae in Israeli hospitals.
OBJECTIVES Resistance to carbapenems in Aeromonas species is rare and mediated mostly by the chromosomal cphA gene. Our aims were to describe the molecular characteristics of the first cases of VIM-producing Aeromonas caviae isolated from human samples. METHODS Carbapenem-resistant Aeromonas (CRA) spp. were isolated from rectal surveillance cultures. Bacterial identification was done by dnaJ ...
