چکیده

One hundred four Enterobacter isolates were tested by standard CLSI disk diffusion methods for detecting extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and with cefepime-clavulanate disk combinations. SHV-12 was produced by 8.7% of isolates. The cefepime-clavulanate combination provided 88% sensitivity and 91% specificity for the detection of SHV-12 ESBL.

Molecular analysis of the simultaneous production of two SHV-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in a clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae by using single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping.

Bacteria that simultaneously produce multiple extended-spectrum beta-lactamases are frequently isolated. We report an Enterobacter cloacae isolate, ES24, producing four different beta-lactamases (AmpC type beta-lactamase, TEM-1, SHV-7, and a novel extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, SHV-30). Direct sequencing of bla(SHV) gene products gave a "double peak" at position 703, suggesting the presence ...

Resistance to ceftazidime, detected in isolates of Escherichia coli 5518 and Enterobacter gergoviae 3773 from our hospital, was transferred, together with resistance to aminoglycosides, trimethoprim, sulfonamide, and other beta-lactam antibiotics, by conjugation to E. coli JP559. Both E. coli transconjugants were resistant to ampicillin, all cephalosporins, and aztreonam but remained susceptibl...
