Characterization of a New Metallo-β-Lactamase Gene, blaNDM-1, and a Novel Erythromycin Esterase Gene Carried on a Unique Genetic Structure in Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 14 from India
Dongeun Yong,Mark Toleman,Christian G. Giske,Hyun Sun Cho,Kristina Sundman,Kyungwon Lee,Timothy R. Walsh +6 more
TL;DR: A Swedish patient of Indian origin traveled to New Delhi, India, and acquired a urinary tract infection caused by a carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain that typed to the sequence type 14 complex, showing broad resistance carried on these plasmids.

Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the Hodge Test and the Imipenem-EDTA Double-Disk Synergy Test for Differentiating Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Isolates of Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp.
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of the Hodge test and those of the imipenem (IPM)-EDTA, ceftazidime (CAZ)-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), and CAZ-sodium mercaptoacetic acid (SMA) double-disk synergy tests (DDSTs) were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imipenem-EDTA Disk Method for Differentiation of Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp.
TL;DR: In this article, a disk with imipenem plus 750 μg of EDTA was used to detect metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing gram-negative bacilli.
