Large Dissemination of VIM-2-Metallo-beta-Lactamase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains Causing Health Care-Associated Community-Onset Infections
Tsakris, A.; Poulou, A.; Kristo, I.; Pittaras, T.; Spanakis, N.; Pournaras, S.; Markou, F. (2009)During a 3-year period (May 2005 to April 2008), a series of 45 outpatients presented with community-onset urinary tract infections due to carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Forty of them had a history ... -
Use of Boronic Acid Disk Tests To Detect Extended-Spectrum beta-Lactamases in Clinical Isolates of KPC Carbapenemase-Possessing Enterobacteriaceae
Tsakris, A.; Poulou, A.; Themeli-Digalaki, K.; Voulgari, E.; Pittaras, T.; Sofianou, D.; Pournaras, S.; Petropoulou, D. (2009)We evaluated boronic acid (BA)-based methods for their ability to detect extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) among clinical isolates of KPC-producing members of the Enterobacteriaceae family. A total of 155 isolates ...
