Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of Specimen Pooling to Conserve SARS CoV-2 Testing Resources.

TL;DR: When the incidence rate of SARS-CoV-2 infection is 10% or less, group testing will result in the saving of reagents and personnel time with an overall increase in testing capability of at least 69%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of β-Lactamases Responsible for Resistance to Extended-Spectrum Cephalosporins in Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica Strains from Food-Producing Animals in the United Kingdom

TL;DR: The data imply that beta-lactam resistance in animal isolates can be generated de novo as evidenced by the E. coli strains, or in the case of the Salmonella strains be the result of intercontinental transmission due to an acquired resistance mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Escherichia coli: Development of Carbapenem Resistance During Therapy

TL;DR: This is the first documented case in which carbapenem-resistant E. coli emerged during therapy with imipenem and meropenem, and the first identification of the carbapanem-hydrolyzing enzyme in E. bacteria isolates.

Molecular characterization of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae in a Saudi Arabian tertiary hospital

TL;DR: This study confirms a high level of blaCTX-M positive ESBL isolates are circulating in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, and the trend of a multidrug-resistant profile associated with the recovery of the blaConnected X-M gene is alarming.
