چکیده

We found a low prevalence (0.6%) of carbapenemase-producingEnterobacteriaceae(CPE) in fecal microbiota of companion dogs. A single VIM-1-producingKlebsiella pneumoniaeisolate belonging to sequence type (ST) 2090 was detected.blaVIM-1was carried on a class 1 integron and an untypeable ∼48-kb plasmid. Emergence and spread of CPE in this group of animals may be a threat to public health in human and veterinary medicine. This finding supports the need for active surveillance studies in companion animals that live close to humans, as interspecies transmission may occur within the same household.

Carbapenemase-producing enterobacteriaceae in Spain in 2012.

We report the epidemiological impact of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in Spain in 2012. Of the 237 carbapenemases detected, 163 were from the OXA-48 group, 60 were from VIM-1, 8 were from KPC-2, 5 were from IMP, and 1 was from NDM-1. Interhospital spread of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was due to a limited number of multilocus sequence types (MLST) and carbap...

Carbapenemase-producing bacteria in companion animals: a public health concern on the horizon.

Clinical infections attributed to carbapenemase-producing bacteria are a pressing public health concern owing to limited therapeutic options and linked antimicrobial resistance. In recent years, studies have reported the emergence and spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and their public health impact. This has been closely followed by the global dissemination of highly resistan...
