Nitrofurantoin (NF), a wide-spectrum antibiotic accessible since 1953, is utilized widely to
treat urinary tract infections as it usually stays active against drug-resistant uropathogen. The …

Background. Carbapenems are the last‐line therapy for multidrug‐resistant (MDR) infections
caused by Enterobacterales, including those caused by Enterobacter species. However, the …

Objective (s): Prompt detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) and
carbapenemase-producing enterobacteriaceae is crucial for infection prevention and control …

Aim The current study aimed to investigate the effects of Debaryomyces hansenii on the
diversity of bacterial lactase gene in the intestinal mucosa of antibiotic-associated diarrhea …

Klebsiella aerogenes is an important opportunistic pathogen with the potential to develop
resistance against last-line antibiotics, such as carbapenems, limiting the treatment options …

Background Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) including different species are isolated
from different human clinical samples. ECC is armed by many different virulence genes …

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of resident bacteriophages in hospital
effluents, as a potential reservoir of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes …

ABSTRACT Background Multidrug-resistant Enterobacter strains that harbour Klebsiella
pneumoniae carbapenemase and Extended Spectrum β-Lactamases genes are a …

T he production of beta-lactamase enzymes is one of the most important mechanisms of
resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics in bacteria. These enzymes are divided into 4 groups …

Background The emergence of multiple drug resistance (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP)
is a public health concern. Colistin is used as a last-resort treatment option for MDR-KP. The …
