Frequency of PER, VEB, SHV, TEM and CTX-M Genes in Resistant Strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Producing Extended Spectrum β-Lactamases.

Jundishapur journal of microbiology

Bokaeian M, Shahraki Zahedani S, Soltanian Bajgiran M, Ansari Moghaddam A.
PMID: 25789123
Jundishapur J Microbiol. 2014 Dec 08;8(1):e13783. doi: 10.5812/jjm.13783. eCollection 2015 Jan.

BACKGROUND: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common pathogen causing nosocomial infections. Resistance of P. aeruginosa strains to broad-spectrum cephalosporins may be mediated by extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs).OBJECTIVES: We intended to investigate the prevalence of ESBLs and antimicrobial susceptibilities of P....

Extended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenemase production among burn and non-burn clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Iranian journal of microbiology

PMID: 26668701
Iran J Microbiol. 2015 Jun;7(3):144-9.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for up to 10% of nosocomial infections. The emergence and spread of multidrug resistant K. pneumoniae, mostly due to the production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) and carbapenemases, is often...
