Background and Objective: Horizontal transfer of integrons is the most successful transfer of antimicrobial resistance genes and the emergence of multi-drug resistance strains. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of class I and II integrons and their gene cassette assortments and antibiotic resistance profile in Escherichia coli strains isolated from diarrheal and uri...
متن کاملPrevalence of qnr Genes in Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Clinical Urine Specimens in University Teaching Hospitals, Iran
Background and Aims: Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing gram negative bacteria are resistant to penicillins, narrow and extended-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam; also they are frequently resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, aminoglycosides, and quinolones. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants q...
متن کاملCharacterization of clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae from 19 laboratories using the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards extended-spectrum beta-lactamase detection methods.
Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) are enzymes found in gram-negative bacilli that mediate resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and aztreonam. In 1999, the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) published methods for screening and confirming the presence of ESBLs in Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Escherichia coli. To evaluate the confirmati...

Background and Objective: Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important causative agents both in form of hospital acquired and community-acquired infections. This bacterium is one of the most prevalent pathogens that is isolated from hospitals and is associated with high mortality rates. The uprising trend of multi drug resistance among Klebsiella pneumoniae has limited the treatment optio...

Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important and prevalent bacterium isolated from clinical cases especially from hospitalized patients. Recent studies have focused on multiple drug resistant K.pneumoniae strains. In this survey, drug resistance in clinical isolates was studied with special reference to extended spectrum β-lactamase. Methods: A total of 303 K.pneumoniae strai...
