Rev. Soc. Bras. Med. Trop; 54 (), 2021

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Carbapenemase-resistant enterobacteria that produce the bla NDM gene are found worldwide. However, this is the first report of blaNDM in Klebsiella aerogenes in Brazil. METHODS: The identification of bacterial species was performed using anautomated system and confirmed by bioche...

Rev. Soc. Bras. Med. Trop; 52 (), 2019

Abstract INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to characterize genes of aminoglycoside modifying enzymes (AMEs) in colonizing and infecting isolates of E. aerogenes harboring bla KPC from patients at a public hospital in Recife-PE, Brazil. METHODS: We analyzed 29 E. aerogenes clinical isolates...

Detection of virulence and β-lactamase encoding genes in Enterobacter aerogenes and Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolates from Brazil

Azevedo, Paola Aparecida Alves; Furlan, João Pedro Rueda; Oliveira-Silva, Mariana; Nakamura-Silva, Rafael; Gomes, Carolina Nogueira; Costa, Karen Regina Carim; Stehling, Eliana Guedes; Pitondo-Silva, André.

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018

ABSTRACT Enterobacter cloacae and E. aerogenes have been increasingly reported as important opportunistic pathogens. In this study, a high prevalence of multi-drug resistant isolates from Brazil, harboring several β-lactamase encoding genes was found. Several virulence genes were observed in E. aero...
