background :   ampc beta lactamases play a significant role in creating resistance to third generation cephalosporins worldwide. they mostly express on chromosome of enterobacteriaceae especially escherichia coli and cause consequential problem in clinical treatment and lead to failure in diagnosis and phenotypic test recommended by clinical and laboratory standards institute.   methods : total...

The technology has proceeded so much that the power system should be substantial and explicit to give optimal results. Ever-increasing complexities of load disparity cause frequency fluctuations leading efficiency degradation system. In order a suitable real output, entails an extremely perceptive control technique. Consequently, advanced method, is, adaptive model predictive controller (AMPC),...

Extensive biochemical testing and 16S rRNA and rpoB sequence analysis revealed that clinical strain CF01Ent1, initially identified as Buttiauxella agrestis by the use of Api 32 biochemical strips, is a new organism in the Enterobacteriaceae family. It produced an inducible AmpC-type -lactamase whose sequence shares 69 to 72% identity with those of the other AmpC-type -lactamases of Enterobacter...

This work describes a simple and practical double synergy differential test (DSDT) that couples the detection of ESBLs and AmpC-type enzymes by means of a combo-disk approach using cefotaxime and ceftazidime as indicator substrates, and clavulanate and boronic acid as enzyme inhibitors. The DSDT was tested with a collection of 118 Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis st...

background and objectives: the oprd mutation and ampc overproduction are the main mechanisms of intrinsic resistance to carbapenems such as imipenem and meropenem in pseudomonas aeruginosa . materials and methods: in this study, we investigated intrinsic resistance to carbapenems including mutation of oprd and ampc overproduction in a carbapenem-resistant p. aeruginosa isolated from a burn pati...

Current study was conducted to determine prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, ESBL, AmpC and carbapenemase- producers among clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae. Three hundred and seven non-duplicative clinical isolates were collected from hospitalized patients in five medical centers in Azerbaijan, Iran. Initial screening for β-lactamase production was performed using disc ...

In the Calgary Health Region during 2000-2003, prospective, active, population-based laboratory surveillance for all cefoxitin-resistant Escherichia coli isolates was performed. Isolates were screened with an inhibitor-based disk test, and plasmid-mediated types were identified by multiplex PCR with sequencing. A total of 369 AmpC beta-lactamase-producing E. coli isolates were identified; annua...

Presence of Bush class C enzymes in uropathogenic strains of Klebsiellapneumoniae & E.coli resistant to extended spectrum cephalosporins is anemerging threat to clinical therapeutics. These resistant strains result inconsiderable treatment failure and cannot be detected by routine antibioticsensitivity screening methods. An effort was therefore made to study AmpC βlactamase ...
