Multiresistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in intensive care units in Greece
(2003)
One hundred and twenty-one clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii recovered from the intensive care units (ICUs) of nine tertiary-care hospitals in Athens, Greece were studied in order to determine whether the ...
Molecular cloning and biochemical characterization of VIM-12, a novel hybrid VIM-1/VIM-2 metallo-beta-lactamase from a Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolate, reveal atypical substrate specificity
(2007)
Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) are considered an emerging family of Zn2+-dependent enzymes that significantly contribute to the resistance of many nosocomial pathogens against beta-lactam antimicrobials. Since these ...
A highly carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate with a novel bla(VIM-4)/bla(P1b) integron overexpresses two efflux pumps and lacks OprD
(2007)
Objectives: A Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate that exhibited high-level carbapenem resistance and produced metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) was recovered from a Greek patient. This study was conducted to determine the ...
Novel variant (bla(VlM-4)) of the metallo-beta-lactamase gene bla(VIM-1) in a clinical strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(2002)
A Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate highly resistant to carbapenems was collected from a patient with post-surgical cerebrospinal infection in Greece. The isolate carried a class I integron that contained as a sole cassette ...
