Worldwide, bacterial resistance to chemical antibiotics has reached such a high level that
endangers public health. Presently, the adoption of alternative strategies that promote the …

Gram-negative carbapenem-resistant bacteria, in particular those producing New Delhi
Metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (NDM-1), are a major global health problem. To inform the …

Antibiotic resistance is a growing public health problem globally, incurring health and cost
burdens. The occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections has increased …

Summary Background Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) may cause
healthcare-associated infections with high mortality rates. New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 …

Objectives To describe the microbiology and antimicrobial resistance patterns of cultured
samples acquired from Canadian ICUs. Methods From 2007 to 2016, tertiary care centres …

Introduction: The antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of bacteria is increasing rapidly against all
classes of antibiotics, with the increasing detection of carbapenem-resistant isolates …

This study sought to monitor the presence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae
(CRE) and the proportion New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1 (NDM-1)-producing bacteria …

Bacterial resistance occurs by spontaneous mutations or horizontal gene transfer mediated
by mobile genetic elements, which represents a great concern. Resistance to β-lactam …

Background: Metallo β-lactamase has emerged worldwide as powerful resistance
determinants in Gram-negative bacteria. They hydrolyze virtually all classes of β-lactams …

Gram negative rod (GNR) infections cause a substantial amount of morbidity and mortality
among hospitalized patients across the globe. Currently, β-lactam ring containing antibiotics …
