Comparative Evaluation of Combined-Disk Tests Using Different Boronic Acid Compounds for Detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Clinical Isolates
(2011)
The accurate phenotypic detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Enterobacteriaceae is an increasing necessity worldwide. We evaluated the performance of boronic acid combined-disk tests using as ...
Evolution of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clonal lineages: a 10 year study in Greece (2000-09)
(2011)
Objectives: To analyse the evolution and genetic relatedness of Acinetobacter baumannii clonal lineages in Greece during a 10 year period. Methods: The study included 94 randomly selected A. baumannii clinical isolates ...
Risk Factors and Outcomes Associated with Acquisition of Colistin-Resistant KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae: a Matched Case-Control Study
(2010)
A matched 1: 3 case-control study investigated factors predicting colistin-resistant versus colistin-susceptible KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae acquisition and its impact on patient outcomes. Case patients were more ...
In Vivo Acquisition of a Plasmid-Mediated bla(KPC-2) Gene among Clonal Isolates of Serratia marcescens
(2010)
Three patients admitted to a Greek hospital were infected with Serratia marcescens isolates that exhibited reduced susceptibility to carbapenems and harbored Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) enzymes. In two of ...
Detection of the new metallo-beta-lactamase VIM-19 along with KPC-2, CMY-2 and CTX-M-15 in Klebsiella pneumoniae
(2010)
To report the identification of the metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) variant VIM-19 in a Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical strain co-producing KPC-2 carbapenemase, CMY-2 cephalosporinase and CTX-M-15 extended-spectrum beta-lactamase. ...
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 ...
