Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Detection and Identification of Metallo-β-Lactamase-Encoding Genes by Multiplex Real-Time PCR Assay and Melt Curve Analysis
Rodrigo E. Mendes,Rodrigo E. Mendes,Katia A. Kiyota,Jussimara Monteiro,Jussimara Monteiro,Mariana Castanheira,Soraya Sgambatti Andrade,Soraya Sgambatti Andrade,Ana Cristina Gales,Antonio Carlos Campos Pignatari,Sergio Tufik,Sergio Tufik +11 more
TL;DR: The real-time PCR assay was able to detect all MβL-harboring clinical isolates, and the Tm-assigned genotypes were 100% coincident with previous sequencing results, meaning this assay could be suitable for identification of M βL-producing gram-negative bacteria by molecular diagnostic laboratories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid detection of carbapenemase genes by multiplex real-time PCR
Jussimara Monteiro,Raymond Widen,Antonio Carlos Campos Pignatari,Carly Kubasek,Suzane Silbert +4 more
TL;DR: A single multiplex real-time PCR assay to detect six different genetic types of carbapenemases already identified in Enterobacteriaceae and showed 100% concordance with the genotypes previously identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
First report of KPC-2-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in Brazil.
Jussimara Monteiro,Anderson Fernandes Santos,Marise Dutra Asensi,Gisele Peirano,Ana Cristina Gales +4 more
TL;DR: The carbapenems are regarded as the preferential therapeutic option for treatment of serious health care-associated infections with multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria with Enterobacteriaceae resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
An outbreak of catalase-negative meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
L. Del'Alamo,Pedro Alves d'Azevedo,A.J. Strob,D.V. Rodríguez-Lopez,Jussimara Monteiro,Soraya S. Andrade,Antonio Carlos Campos Pignatari,Ana Cristina Gales +7 more
TL;DR: The first outbreak of a catalase-negative strain of MRSA, which was initially detected by the unusual result of this phenotypical test, was reported in the Hospital Sanatorinhos de Carapicuíba in São Paulo, Brazil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast and reliable bacterial identification direct from positive blood culture using a new TFA sample preparation protocol and the Vitek® MS system.
Jussimara Monteiro,Fernanda Matsiko Inoue,Ana Paula T. Lobo,Eduardo Kinio Sugawara,Fabiana M. Boaretti,Sergio Tufik +5 more
TL;DR: A simple and reliable protocol using 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was developed to identify bacteria directly from blood cultures on the Vitek® MS system, and results presented a correlation of 99% for Gram-negative bacteria at species level and 86.3% of Gram-positive bacteria at the genus and species levels.
