In vitro pharmacodynamics of colistin against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.
BACKGROUND Resistance to colistin is emerging in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and no solid pharmacodynamic data are available for colistin against Klebsiella pneumoniae. METHODS Twenty-one multidrug-resistant clinical K. pneumoniae isolates from 16 different clinical sites worldwide were employed. The genetic relatedness of these isolates was examined with PFGE. In vitro pharmac...
متن کاملDissemination of high-level penicillin-, extended-spectrum cephalosporin-, and erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae clones in Taiwan.
Sixty-seven clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae (40 of serotype 23F, 19 of serotype 19F, and 8 of serotype 6B) with decreased susceptibilities to penicillin and erythromycin were characterized by antimicrobial susceptibility patterns; DNA restriction endonuclease cleavage profiles of the penicillin-binding protein genes pbp1a, pbp2b, and pbp2x; random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) ...
متن کاملGenome Sequences of Multidrug-Resistant, Colistin-Susceptible and -Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates from Pakistan
The emergence and spread of colistin resistance among multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae represent a critical threat to global health. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of 10 MDR, colistin-susceptible and -resistant K. pneumoniae clinical isolates obtained in Pakistan between 2010 and 2013.
متن کاملAntibiotic-resistant invasive pediatric Streptococcus pneumoniae clones in Israel.
Antibiotic-resistant international clones of Streptococcus pneumoniae are increasingly reported in different parts of the world. We investigated the spread of these clones through an active surveillance performed at the Israeli Streptococcal National Center during 1998 and 1999. Isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility, serotyped, and genotyped by random amplified polymorphic DNA anal...
متن کاملMultidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 6D clones in South Korea.
To investigate the characteristics of main Streptococcus pneumoniae clones of serotype 6D (ST282 and ST3171) in South Korea, antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed, and 11 genes around the cps locus were sequenced on ST282(6D), ST3171(6D), and ST81(6A) isolates. The antimicrobial susceptibility patterns were very similar between clones belonging to the same clonal complex, ST81(6A) ...
