Since recently Enterobacteriaceae carrying bla VIM-1 genes have been isolated in German
animal husbandries, the monitoring of carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae …

The occurrence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in livestock is considered
as a threat for public health. In Germany, VIM-1-producing Escherichia (E.) coli sequence …

A few reports indicate that livestock might represent a new reservoir for carbapenemase-
producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). In 2015, VIM-1-producing Escherichia coli were …

Carbapenems are broad‐spectrum β‐lactam antimicrobials used for the treatment of serious
infections in humans. To date only sporadic studies have reported the occurrence of …

Early detection of emerging carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in food-
producing animals is essential to control the spread of CPE. We assessed the risk of CPE …

ABSTRACT In 2011, VIM-1-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis and Escherichia
coli were isolated for the first time in four German livestock farms. In 2015/2016, highly …

The increasing spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) poses a
serious threat to public health. Recent studies suggested animals as a putative source of …

Occurrence of multidrug resistant Enterobacteriaceae in livestock is of concern as they can
spread to humans. A potential introduction route for these bacteria to livestock could be …

After first detections of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in animals, the
European Union Reference Laboratory for Antimicrobial Resistance has provided a protocol …

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) threaten both agriculture and public
health. While carbapenems are restricted in food-producing animals, other β-lactams, such …
