The 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 کاملEvaluation of the β-Lactamase Disk Test Method in the Detection of Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamases in Clinical Isolates of Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background & Aims: The production of extended-spectrum-β-lactamases (ESBLs) is the main mechanism of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. The outbreak of isolates simultaneously possessing several resistance mechanisms to β-lactam antibiotics caused a decrease in sensitivity of the confirmatory tests for ESBL. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the β-lactamase disk test...

متن کاملthe β-lactamase disk test: a modified method to detect extended-spectrum-β-lactamases in multidrug-resistant escherichia coli isolates
conclusions the β-lactamase disk test is appropriately sensitive to detect esbls in mdr isolates of e. coli. background most urinary tract infections (utis) are caused by escherichia coli (e. coli) species. due to infections outbreaks of e. coli strains with multiple mechanisms of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, the sensitivity of confirmatory tests to detect the extended spectrum β-lactama...
متن کاملA method to extract three-dimensional objects from three-dimensional NMR image data.
A method to extract shapes of bubble polyhedra from three-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance image data of foam has been developed. The method consists of four steps: first, to compute series of maximum intensity projection images from the three-dimensional NMR image data of foam to visualize the network structure of the bubble edges; second, to measure the three-dimensional coordinates of ...
