Title: Isolation of VIM-2-producing Pseudomonas monteilii clinical strains Disseminated

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 کاملPrevalence of IMP and VIM Metallo-Beta-Lactamases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Clinical and Environmental Specimens in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) of Rasht Hospitals, Iran
Introduction: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the leading causes of nosocomial infections, and antibiotic resistance of this pathogen is an important concern in treating such infections. The current work was conducted to investigate the prevalence of bla-IMP, and bla-VIM metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) among clinical and environmental P. aeruginosa isolates obtained from ICUs of different hospita...
متن کاملVIM-1-producing Pseudomonas mosselii isolates in Italy, predating known VIM-producing index strains.
Acquired metallo-lactamases (MBLs) are emerging resistance determinants of great clinical concern. They are found in Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other Gram-negative nonfermenters, in which they can confer a very broad spectrum of -lactam resistance, including the expanded-spectrum cephalosporins and carbapenems, that cannot be reverted by -lactamase inhibitors currently avai...
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...
