First report of the ceftazidimase CTX-M-19 in South America

چکیده
We report the first detection of bla CTX-M-19 in South America, harboured in an Escherichia coli isolate obtained from a urine sample; such an isolate belonged to phylogenetic group A, ST603, and showed a ceftazidimase profile. bla CTX-M-19 was encoded in an approximately 100 kb IncI1/IncF conjugative plasmid, featuring pndAC and hok/sok addiction systems; the β-lactamase gene was flanked upstream by three tandem-like transposons (IS26, IS10 and ISEcp1), inserted one inside the other, and downstream by IS903.

First Characterization of CTX-M-15-Producing Escherichia coli Strains Belonging to Sequence Type (ST) 410, ST224, and ST1284 from Commercial Swine in South America.
We report for the first time the isolation of CTX-M-15-producingEscherichia colistrains belonging to sequence type (ST) 410, ST224, and ST1284 in commercial swine in Brazil. TheblaCTX-M-15gene was located on F-::A9::B1 and C1::A9::B1 IncF-type plasmids, surrounded by a new genetic context comprising the IS26insertion sequence truncated with the ISEcp1element upstream ofblaCTX-M-15 These results...
متن کاملFirst human isolate of Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis harboring blaCTX-M-14 in South America.
We studied a clinical isolate of Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis showing resistance to oxyiminocephalosporins. PCR analysis confirmed the presence of bla(CTX-M-14) linked to IS903 in a 95-kb IncI1 conjugative plasmid. Such a plasmid is maintained on account of the presence of a pndAC addiction system. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis indicated that the strain belongs to ST11....
متن کاملDetection of Enterobacteriaceae producing CTX-M extended spectrum beta-lactamases from a tertiary care hospital in south India.
A total of 23 clinical isolates (15 Escherichia coli and 8 Klebsiella pneumoniae), resistant to cefotaxime and ceftazidime recovered during 2002 and 2003, were investigated for production of CTX-M extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) by phenotypic and molecular methods. The presence of ESBL was tested by NCCLS phenotypic confirmatory test using cephalosporin/clavulanate combination discs and...
متن کاملCTX-M-32 beta-lactamase-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated in Latin America.
Background Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the most important pathogen involved in urinary tract infections (UTIs). Beta-lactam antibiotics have been widely used to treat UPEC infections; however, extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) create significant therapeutic problems by inactivating almost all beta-lactams except cephamycins and carbapenems [1,2]. The CTX-M-type beta-lactama...
متن کاملPER, CTX-M, TEM and SHV Beta-lactamases in Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Tehran, Iran
Objective(s) Different types of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) are encountered in the clinical settings worldwide. There are a few studies regarding the prevalence of ESBL genes among Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates at Tehran especially those of blaPER and blaCTX. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of blaSHV, blaTEM ,blaPER and blaCTX genes among clinical K. pneumo...
