The appearance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains with multi-resistance to antibiotics is a clinical problem great relevance. methods for detecting these resistances are laborious and slow, which complication when treating patients promptly. In this work, we developed simple method simultaneous detection several carbapenem resistance genes using multiplex PCR assay. assay developed, followed by ...

background and objectives: pseudomonas aeruginosa is a frequent opportunistic pathogen in health care associated infections that is highly resistant to the majority of β-lactams. the aims of this study were to access the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of p. aeruginosa isolated from educational hospitals of qazvin and alborz provinces, to determine the prevalence of metallo-β-lactamase (mb...

background: resistance to contemporary broad-spectrum b-lactam antibiotics mediated by extended-spectrum b-lactamases (esbls) is increasing worldwide. klebsiella pneumoniae , an important cause of nosocomial and community acquired urinary tract infections has rapidly become the most common esbl producing organism. we examined esbl production in urinary isolates of k. pneumoniae in relation to t...

SummaryBackground Wastewater-based monitoring represents a useful tool for antibiotic resistance surveillance. Aim To investigate the prevalence and abundance of genes (ARGs) in hospital wastewater over time. Methods Wastewater from two hospitals Finland (HUS1 HUS2) was monitored weekly nine weeks (weeks 25–33) summer 2020. A high-throughput real-time polymer...

Background: Production of β–lactamases by enterobacteriacea, especially Klebsiella pneumoniae, is one of the emerging health problems in the world. The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of blaCTX-M15 gene in K. pneumoniae isolates and determine the molecular diversity of CTXM producing isolates. Methods: In...

background and objectives: carbapenem resistant a. baumannii is an emerging cause of nosocomial infections. the aims of this study were identification of the most prevalent of carbapenem resistant genes, molecular typing and antimicrobial evaluation of a.baumannii in intensive care units. materials and methods: two hundred and six a. baumannii were isolated from tracheal tube discharge of hospi...

conclusions our findings showed a high occurrence of metallo-β-lactamase production among p. aeruginosa isolates in burn patient infections in our region. also, there are p. aeruginosa isolates carrying the bla-vim-1 and bla-vim-2 genes in isfahan province. background metallo-β-lactamase-production among gram-negative bacteria, including pseudomonas aeruginosa, has become a challenge for treatm...

metallo-β-lactamase (mbl) producing pseudomonas aeruginosa has been reported to be an important nosocomial infection. its intrinsic and acquired resistance to various antimicrobial agents and its ability to develop multidrug resistance imposes a serious therapeutic problem. different clinical samples were collected from public and private hospitals in baghdad city, iraq. bacterial identificatio...
