Molecular Characteristics of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacter cloacae in Ningxia Province, China
The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) has become a major public health concern worldwide and a new challenge in the treatment of infectious diseases. The molecular characteristics of Enterobacter cloacae in Ningxia China are unknown. In this study, we reported 10 carbapenem-resistant E. cloacae isolates from the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, the larges...
متن کاملGenetic Characterization of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae and the Spread of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumonia ST340 at a University Hospital in Thailand
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) has increasingly spread worldwide in the past decade. The prevalence and characteristics of CRE in Thailand are unknown. In this study, we conducted a 2-year surveillance of CRE among 12,741 clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae at the largest university hospital in Thailand with molecular characterization of beta-lactamase (bla) genes, including ...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolates from Korea and clinical outcome.
We investigated the molecular mechanisms of carbapenem resistance in clinical isolates of Enterobacter cloacae and their clinical characteristics. Nonreplicable E. cloacae isolates were recovered from six cancer patients and one patient with liver cirrhosis at a tertiary-care hospital in Korea between 2002 and 2009. Two patients who were considered to have a true infection caused by these micro...
متن کاملNmcA Carbapenem-hydrolyzing Enzyme in Enterobacter cloacae in North America1
An imipenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae isolate was recovered from the blood of a patient with a hematologic malignancy. Analytical isoelectric focusing, inhibitor studies, hydrolysis, induction assays, and molecular sequencing methods confirmed the presence of a NmcA carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzyme. This first report of NmcA detected in North America warrants further investigation into its di...
متن کاملAn outbreak of carbapenem-resistant enterobacter cloacae in pediatric intensive care unit of a Chinese teaching hospital
Objective: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae infections are known to be particularly prevalent in vulnerable populations, especially children. However, the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of carbapenemresistant E. cloacae infections in the pediatric wards of China have not been well described. The aim of the present study was to characterize an outbreak of carbapenem-resistant ...
