Evaluation of Genotypic and Phenotypic Methods to Detect Carbapenemase Production in Gram-Negative Bacilli.
BACKGROUND Carbapenemase-producing gram-negative bacteria (CP-GNB) are an urgent and expanding public health threat. Rapid and accurate identification of these organisms facilitates infection prevention efforts in healthcare facilities. The objective of our study was to evaluate methods to detect and identify CP-GNB. METHODS We examined 189 carbapenem-resistant GNB(CR-GNB), including Enteroba...
متن کاملPhenotypic and genotypic detection of carbapenemase enzymes producing gram-negative bacilli isolated from patients in
Carbapenems are used as antibiotics of last resort for treating Background infections due to multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli, but emergence of Carbapenem resistant Gram-negative bacilli have been reported due to the production of Carbapenemase enzymes that significantly limits treatment options for life-threatening infections. : This study aimed to detect Carbapenem resistant Gram-neg...
متن کاملGRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN BURNS
In a period of nine months, 225 strains of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from burns were identified by a variety of tests in two burn centers in Tehran. The most common species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Many strains of acinetobacter spp, providencia spp, proteus spp, ser...
متن کاملThe Importance of Extended-Spectrum β-lactamases in Gram-Negative Enteric Bacilli and the Phenotypic Methods of detection
The production of β-lactamase enzymes is the main mechanism of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in gramnegative bacilli. Therefore, it is important to identify the β-lactamases-producing bacteria for the treatment of caused infections. This article aimed to review the recent literature and guidelines regarding phenotypic detection of β-lactamases in common gram-negative bacilli in clinical sa...
متن کاملgenotypic identification of ampc β-lactamases production in gram-negative bacilli isolates
background: ampc type β-lactamases are commonly isolated from extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant gram-negative bacteria. also, resistance appeared in bacterial species not naturally producing ampc enzymes. therefore, a standard test for the detection of the plasmid-mediated ampc enzyme and new breakpoints for extended spectrum cephalosporins are urgently necessary. objectives: to detect ...
