abstract

conclusions considering the high prevalence of esbl genes (bla ctx-m, 87%; and bla tem, 82%), fluoroquinolones may be used as an alternative drug in treatment, although resistance to this family is increasing as well. as a result, this increasing trend should be prevented using appropriate guidelines for prescription. background escherichia coli is the most important as well as the most common bacteria causing urinary tract infections (utis) and its resistance to common antibiotics is increasing. extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (esbl) producer e. coli strains can resist against the third-generation and fourth-generation cephalosporins. objectives this study aimed to evaluate the resistance profile of e. coli isolated from patients with utis referred to imam khomeini and baqiyatallah hospitals, tehran, iran, through phenotypic and molecular methods. materials and methods during 2010-2011, 180 urine samples of patients with utis from imam khomeini and baqiyatallah hospitals were collected. based on the standard bacteriologic tests, e. coli isolates were identified. resistance to common antibiotics was tested by the kirby-bauer method and reconfirmed by determining minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) through microdilution method. further phenotypic double-disk synergy test (ddst) was performed to screen the esbl producer strains. resistance genes related to esbl and qnra were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (pcr). results a total of 100 e. coli strains were examined by antibiogram and the rates of resistance to the tested antibiotics were as follows: 100% to penicillin and amoxicillin, 77% to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, 72% to ceftazidime, 69% to cefotaxime, 47% to cefoxitin, 46% to ceftriaxone, 43% to cephalexin, 27% to aztreonam, 53% to nalidixic acid, 51% to ciprofloxacin, and 2% to imipenem. the mic to ciprofloxacin, cefazolin, and ceftriaxone were ≥ 0.249, ≥ 0.508, and ≥ 0.044, respectively. moreover, 20% of e. coli isolates were esbl-producing isolates by ddst. the frequency of bla ctx-m, bla tem, bla shv, and qnra genes was 87%, 82%, 65%, and 39%, respectively.

High prevalence of bla(CTX-M) extended spectrum beta-lactamase genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from a tertiary care hospital: first report of bla(SHV-12), bla(SHV-31), bla(SHV-38), and bla(CTX-M-15) in Brazil.

The aim of this study was to investigate the presence and prevalence of bla(TEM), bla(SHV), and bla(CTX-M) and bla(GES)-like genes, responsible for extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) production in clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae collected from a Brazilian tertiary care hospital. Sixty-five ESBL producing K. pneumoniae isolates, collected between 2005 and 2007, were screened by...

Multiplex PCR for bla(CTX-M) & bla(SHV) in the extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing gram-negative isolates.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Phenotyping is commonly used for detection of extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) production in gram-negative isolates. ESBLs are mainly coded for by three important genes, namely bla(TEM), bla(SHV) and bla(CTX-M). In this study we used a multiplex PCR as a rapid method to identify two common genes (bla(CTX-M) & bla(SHV)) responsible for extended spectrum beta lactama...

detection of bla tem and bla shvgenes among clinical isolates of e. coli from tehran hospitals

background and objectives: the pathogenic strains of escherichia coli cause severe septicemia, urinary tract infection and wound sepsis. resistance of this organism to the expanded-spectrum cephalosporins occurs via the production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) such as tem and shv. these enzymes hydrolyze oxyimino cephalosporins (cefotaxime, ceftazidime) and monobactams (aztreonam). ...

Non-ST131 Escherichia coli from cattle harbouring human-like bla(CTX-M-15)-carrying plasmids.

OBJECTIVES To characterize bla(CTX-M-15)-carrying plasmids and lineages of nine strains of Escherichia coli from cattle. METHODS Plasmid DNA was analysed using PCR-based replicon typing and plasmid sub-typing schemes, restriction fragment length polymorphism, S1 nuclease-PFGE and Southern hybridization. Strains were characterized by PFGE, multilocus sequence typing, phylogenetic grouping and ...
