First report of OXA-143-lactamase producing Acinetobacter baumannii inQom

Objective(s):Antibiotic resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii and outbreaks caused by this organism have been reported from several areas of the world. The present study aimed at determining the antibiotic susceptibility profiles and the distribution of OXA-type beta-lactamases among Iranian Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from Qom of Iran. Materials and Methods: For this study, 108 non-duplic...

Globally expanding carbapenemase finally appears in Spain: nosocomial outbreak of acinetobacter baumannii producing plasmid-encoded OXA-23 in Barcelona, Spain.

Resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates to carbapenems is on the rise worldwide mainly in association with the production of OXA-23. Until recently, however, OXA-23 was absent in Spain. In this work, we report the molecular characterization of a hospital outbreak of OXA-23-producing A. baumannii in Barcelona caused by a multidrug-resistant (MDR) clone belonging to international ...

Identification and characterization of carbapenemase genes in clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii from general hospital in Thailand.

This study identified, using PCR blaoxA,,23 encoding carbapenamase OXA-23 in 42 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) clinical iso- lates and blaOXA-40-like encoding carbapenamase OXA-40-like in one isolate (the first such Thai sample) obtained from patients admitted to Hua Hin Hospital, Thailand during November 2011-September 2012. Using repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR, the...

Acinetobacter baumannii producing OXA-23 detected in the Czech Republic

BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen posing an increased risk to hospitalized persons, causing nosocomial pneumonias, urinary tract infections and postoperative infections. METHODS Between 1 December 2011 and 30 September 2012, strains of Acinetobacter spp. were isolated from clinical samples obtained from hospitalized patients. Susceptibility to antibiotics was det...

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii producing OXA-23 in Thailand.

We investigated the resistance determinant of 13 clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii collected from a regional hospital in the north of Thailand. All isolates were multidrug resistant and produced the OXA-23 carbapenemase. The bla(OXA-23) gene was found adjacent to ISAba1. Furthermore, two isolates carried the metallo beta-lactamase gene, bla(IMP). The bla(OXA-23) ...
