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 ...
Recurrent healthcare-associated community-onset infections due to Klebsiella pneumoniae producing VIM-1 metallo-beta-lactamase
(2010)
To investigate the extrahospital dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates and the mechanisms of acquired resistance. Patients who were referred to the outpatient department of Serres General ...
Activity of tigecycline alone and in combination with colistin and meropenem against Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Enterobacteriaceae strains by time-kill assay
(2011)
Antibiotic combinations including tigecycline have not been studied against Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing pathogens. Tigecycline alone and combined with colistin and meropenem was tested against eight ...
Cross-transmission of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clonal strains causing episodes of sepsis in a trauma intensive care unit
(2008)
OBJECTIVE. To investigate the mode of transmission of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains causing episodes of sepsis. SETTING. A 7-bed trauma intensive care unit (ICU) in an orthopedic hospital in Greece. ...
Susceptibility patterns to extended-spectrum cephalosporins among Enterobacteriaceae harbouring extended-spectrum beta-lactamases using the updated Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute interpretive criteria
(2013)
We examined the effect of applying the updated 2010 Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) susceptibility breakpoints for extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs) to detect extended-spectrum beta-lactamase ...
Spread of efflux pump-overexpressing, non-metallo-beta-lactamase-producing, meropenem-resistant but ceftazidime-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a region with bla(VIM) endemicity
(2005)
Objectives: To investigate the resistance mechanisms of meropenem-resistant, ceftazidime-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, in a clinical setting where VIM-2 or VIM-4 metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-producing ...
Detection of a phylogenetically distinct IMP-type metallo-beta-lactamase, IMP-35, in a CC235 Pseudomonas aeruginosa from the Dutch-German border region (Euregio)
(2013)
To characterize a highly divergent IMP-type metallo--lactamase (MBL) variant detected in a multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate. P. aeruginosa isolate 1876 was recovered from an anal swab of an ...
A large waterborne gastroenteritis outbreak in central Greece, March 2012: challenges for the investigation and management
(2014)
In March 2012, there was an unusual increase of gastroenteritis cases in a district with 37264 inhabitants in central Greece. It was estimated that more than 3600 people developed symptoms. A 1:1 case-control study showed ...
