Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of a new antibiotic resistance mechanism in India, Pakistan, and the UK: a molecular, biological, and epidemiological study
Karthikeyan Kumarasamy,Mark Toleman,Timothy R. Walsh,Jay Bagaria,Fafhana Butt,Ravikumar Balakrishnan,Uma Chaudhary,Michel Doumith,Christian G. Giske,Seema Irfan,Padma Krishnan,Anil Kumar,Sunil Maharjan,Shazad Mushtaq,Tabassum Noorie,David L. Paterson,A. Pearson,Claire Perry,Rachel Pike,Bhargavi Rao,Ujjwayini Ray,Jayanta B. Sarma,Madhu Sharma,Elizabeth Sheridan,M A Thirunarayan,Jane F. Turton,Supriya Upadhyay,Marina Warner,William Welfare,David M. Livermore,Neil Woodford +30 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of NDM-1, in multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in India, Pakistan, and the UK is investigated, and co-ordinated international surveillance is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiplex PCR for genes encoding prevalent OXA carbapenemases in Acinetobacter spp.
Neil Woodford,Matthew J. Ellington,Juliana Coelho,Jane F. Turton,M. Elaina Ward,Susan Brown,Sebastian G. B. Amyes,David M. Livermore +7 more
TL;DR: A novel multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay able to detect and distinguish alleles encoding three subgroups of acquired OXA carbapenemases that are scattered in Acinetobacter spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiresistant Gram-negative bacteria: the role of high-risk clones in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance
TL;DR: 'high-risk clones' play a major role in the spread of resistance, with the risk lying in their tenacity--deriving from poorly understood survival traits--and a flexible ability to accumulate and switch resistance, rather than to constant resistance batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of ISAba1 in expression of OXA carbapenemase genes in Acinetobacter baumannii
Jane F. Turton,M. Elaina Ward,Neil Woodford,Mary E. Kaufmann,Rachel Pike,David M. Livermore,Tyrone L. Pitt +6 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that ISAba1 is providing the promoter for blaOXA-51-like and, probably, for blasOxA-23-like, which are likely to be the next generation of Acinetobacter baumannii isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Acinetobacter baumannii by Detection of the blaOXA-51-like Carbapenemase Gene Intrinsic to This Species
TL;DR: The blaOXA-51-like gene was detected in each of 141 isolates of A. baumannii but not in those of 22 other Acinetobacter species.
