Characterization of In3Mor, a new integron carrying VIM-1 metallo-beta-lactamase and sat1 gene, from Morganella morganii
(2007)
Objectives: A carbapenem-resistant Morganella morganii clinical isolate that was phenotypically metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-positive was recovered from a Greek patient. The aim of the study was to analyse the structure ...
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 ...
First occurrence of KPC-2-possessing Klebsiella pneumoniae in a Greek hospital and recommendation for detection with boronic acid disc tests
(2008)
To investigate the first KPC carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate from a Greek hospital, including phenotypic methods to aid recognition of this resistance type. A carbapenem-resistant clinical isolate of ...
Clusters of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clones producing different carbapenemases in an intensive care unit
(2008)
During a 2-year period (April 2005-March 2007), 31 intensive care unit (ICU) patients in a Greek hospital were infected or colonised with imipenem-resistant isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. Twelve patients died, with ...
Transmission in the community of clonal Proteus mirabilis carrying VIM-1 metallo-beta-lactamase
(2007)
Objectives: Several infections among patients attending our outpatient clinic were caused by imipenem-resistant Proteus mirabilis that were phenotypically metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-positive. The aim of the study was to ...
Outbreak of multiple clones of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates expressing OXA-58 carbapenemase in an intensive care unit
(2006)
Objectives: To investigate the resistance mechanisms and the genetic relationship of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates recovered in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary care hospital. Methods: ...
Characterization of clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa heterogeneously resistant to carbapenems
(2007)
Fourteen apparently carbapenem-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates that exhibited colonies within the inhibition zone around carbapenem discs were analysed. MICs of carbapenems were determined and the ...
Characteristics of Meropenem Heteroresistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase (KPC)-Producing Clinical Isolates of K-pneumoniae
(2010)
Meropenem heteroresistance was investigated in six apparently meropenem-susceptible, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-KP) clinical isolates, compared with that in carbapenemase-negative, ...
