Modified Double Disc Synergy Test to Detect ESBL Production in Urinary Isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Various phenotypic methods are recommended in the routine practice to detect the ESBL production in gram negative bacilli. Among them, the Double Disc Synergy Test (DDST) which uses the third generation cephalosporins (3GC), is a simple and a reliable method. But the coexistence of AmpC may give false negative results. In such cases, the ESBL detection can be improved ...
متن کاملPrevalence of ESBL-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in Tertiary Care Hospital
Extended-spectrum β lactamases (ESBLs) continue to be a major challenge in clinical setups world over, conferring resistance to the expanded-spectrum cephalosporins. An attempt was made to study the prevalence of ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates in a tertiary care hospital in Kurnool. A total of hundred collected isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae was studied for their susc...
متن کاملEsbl Production: Resistance Pattern in Escherichia Coli and Klebsiella Pneumoniae, a Study by Ddst Method
Objectives: Resistance to third generation cephalosporins in E. coli and K. pneumoniae are due to various factors. The present study was undertaken to detect resistance mediated by ESBL’s. Multidrug resistance in isolates producing ESBL was also studied. Methods: The study included a total of 200 clinical specimens which include 95 urine, 45 pus, 32 sputum, 11 blood, 9 throat swabs, 6 suction t...
متن کاملPrevalence of Extended Spectrum β-lactamase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Clinical Isolates
BACKGROUND Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) are gram-negative bacteria that produce the enzyme, β-lactamase, which can break down commonly used antibiotics, such as penicillin and cephalosporins, making infections with ESBL producing bacteria more difficult to treat. Extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae were first reported in 1983 from Germany, and since then a stea...
متن کاملComparison of double disk synergy test, VITEK 2 and Check-MDR CT102 for detection of ESBL producing isolates.
OBJECTIVE This study is to define the statistical significance for detection of ESBL producers by the double disk synergy test and molecular test (Check-MDR CT102), microdilution test (VITEK 2 with AES) and double disk synergy test (DDST), as well as the microdilution test and molecular test. MATERIALS AND METHODS Phenotypic testing of 55 isolates Enterobacteriaceae (Escherichia coli (14/55),...
