Sensibilidad disminuida a los antibóticos Beta-Lactamicos en estreptococos Beta-Hemolíticos
Decreased sensitivity to beta-lactam antibiotics in beta-hemolytic streptococci

Med. infant; 28 (1), 2021
Últimamente, se están detectando mutaciones en las proteínas ligadoras de penicilina (PBP) de los estreptococos beta-hemolíticos que corresponden a sitios que en Streptococcus pneumoniae han determinado sensibilidad disminuida a los antibióticos beta-lactámicos. Primero, se describieron cepas con s...

Carbapenem stewardship with ertapenem and antimicrobial resistance-a scoping review

Abstract Consumption of carbapenem has increased due to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing bacteria spreading. Ertapenem has been suggested as a not carbapenem-resistance inducer. We performed a scoping review of carbapenem-sparing stewardship with ertapenem and its impact on the antibiotic resis...

Costos médicos directos de las infecciones del tracto urinario por bacilos Gram negativos resistentes a betalactámicos en un hospital de alta complejidad de Medellín, Colombia

Biomédica (Bogotá); 39 (supl.1), 2019
Resumen Introducción. Las infecciones del tracto urinario son muy frecuentes en el ámbito hospitalario. Debido a la aparición de la resistencia antimicrobiana, la complejidad de los procesos de atención ha aumentado y, con ello, la demanda de recursos. Objetivo. Describir y comparar el exceso de lo...

Susceptibility to β-lactams in β-hemolytic streptococci

Rev. argent. microbiol; 50 (4), 2018
Group A (GAS), B (GBS), c (GCS) and G (GGS) β-hemolytic streptococci are important human pathogens. They cause infections of different severity and frequency. Nowadays, after 70 years of use, penicillin is still universally active against GAS, GCS and GGS. However, therapeutic failures have been rec...

pMEX01, a 70kb Plasmid Isolated From Escherichia Coli That Confers Resistance to Multiple β-Lactam Antibiotics

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (3), 2018
Abstract Multidrug-resistant microorganisms are of great concern to public health. Genetic mobile elements, such as plasmids, are among the most relevant mechanisms by which bacteria achieve this resistance. We obtained an Escherichia coli strain CM6, isolated from cattle presenting severe diarrheic symp...

Effect of γ-lactones and γ-lactams compounds on Streptococcus mutans biofilms

J. appl. oral sci; 26 (), 2018
Abstract Considering oral diseases, antibiofilm compounds can decrease the accumulation of pathogenic species such as Streptococcus mutans at micro-areas of teeth, dental restorations or implant-supported prostheses. Objective To assess the effect of thirteen different novel lactam-based compounds on th...

Antimicrobial resistance in Enterobacteriaceae in Brazil: focus on ß-lactams and polymyxins

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (supl.1), 2016
ABSTRACT During the last 30 years there has been a dissemination of plasmid-mediated β-lactamases in Enterobacteriaceae in Brazil. Extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) are widely disseminated in the hospital setting and are detected in a lower frequency in the community setting. Cefotaximases ...
