Evaluation of Boronic Acid Disk Tests for Differentiating KPC-Possessing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in the Clinical Laboratory
(2009)
The worldwide increase in the occurrence and dissemination of KPC beta-lactamases among gram-negative pathogens makes critical the early detection of these enzymes. Boronic acid disk tests using different antibiotic ...
Use of Boronic Acid Disk Tests To Detect Extended-Spectrum beta-Lactamases in Clinical Isolates of KPC Carbapenemase-Possessing Enterobacteriaceae
(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 ...
A simple phenotypic method for the differentiation of metallo-beta-lactamases and class A KPC carbapenemases in Enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates
(2010)
The increasing frequency of class A KPC enzymes and class B metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) among Enterobacteriaceae as well as their possible co-production makes their early differentiation urgent. A simple phenotypic ...
