The emergence of carbapenem-resistant enterobacterial species poses a serious threat to
public health worldwide. OXA-48-type carbapenem-hydrolyzing class D β-lactamases are …

We distinguished the four alleles of OXA subgroups from 339 strains of Acinetobacter
baumannii using Polymerase Chain Reaction, and investigated distributions of OXA …

The emergence of carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii has become a global
concern since these β-lactams are often the only effective treatment left against many …

Whole-genome sequencing of a collection of 103 Acinetobacter strains belonging to 22
validly named species and another 16 putative species allowed detection of genes for 50 …

Abstract Oxacillinase (OXA)–48–like carbapenemases remain relatively uncommon in the
United States. We performed phenotypic and genotypic characterization of 30 …

Acinetobacter spp., especially Acinetobacter baumannii, are common opportunistic
pathogens in immunocompromised patients and currently cause 10% of nosocomial …

ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae K6 (ATCC 700603), a clinical isolate, is resistant to
ceftazidime and other oxyimino-β-lactams. A consistent reduction in the MICs of oxyimino-β …

ABSTRACT OXA-58 is a recently described carbapenemase from Acinetobacter spp. in
Europe. We examined earlier worldwide Acinetobacter collections and found bla OXA-58 in …

Among 53 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates collected in 2004, nine imipenem-resistant
isolates were obtained from clinical specimens taken from patients hospitalized in Busan …

An Escherichia coli strain resistant to a broad spectrum of beta-lactams, including
cephamycins, was isolated from a patient suffering from urinary tract infection. A resistance …
