Comparison of four low-cost carbapenemase detection tests and a proposal of an algorithm for early detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in resource-limited settings

Wirittamulla Gamage Maheshika Kumudunie et al.

Summary: Rapidly developing antibiotic resistance poses a significant challenge in therapy, particularly against infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). This study compared four phenotypic carbapenemase detection tests and proposed an algorithm for rapid and cost-effective identification of CP-CRE. The combination of CNPt-direct and mCIM was recommended for rapid and reliable detection of carbapenemase production in resource-limited settings.

Antimicrobial resistance and gene regulation in Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli from Egyptian children with diarrhoea: Similarities and differences

Radwa Abdelwahab et al.

Summary: EAEC is a common diarrheal pathogen that is increasingly resistant to antibiotics. Through whole genome sequencing of two typical EAEC strains, it was found that they carry multiple antibiotic resistance genes and virulence determinants. Overexpression of Aar disrupts biofilm formation in EAEC.

Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates: In Vivo Virulence Assessment in Galleria mellonella and Potential Therapeutics by Polycationic Oligoethyleneimine

Dalila Mil-Homens et al.

Summary: Klebsiella pneumoniae, a common pathogen in hospital-acquired infections, often shows resistance to multiple antibiotics, especially those producing KPC or OXA-48-like carbapenemases. In this study, the virulence of K. pneumoniae KPC(+) or OXA-48(+) isolates was evaluated, with KPC(+) strains showing higher virulence on average than OXA-48(+). Additionally, a synthetic polycationic oligomer (L-OEI-h) was identified as a potential antimicrobial agent with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against MDR bacteria.
