Increasing Resistance to Extended-Spectrum Cephalosporins, Fluoroquinolone, and Carbapenem in Gram-Negative Bacilli and the Emergence of Carbapenem Non-Susceptibility in Klebsiella pneumoniae: Analysis of Korean Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (KARMS) Data From 2013 to 2015

TL;DR: Between 2013 and 2015, the resistance rates of E. coli to third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins increased continuously, while carbapenem-susceptibility gradually decreased, particularly in K. pneumoniae; therefore, few treatment options remain for these resistant strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metallo-β-lactamase-producing Gram-negative bacilli in Korean Nationwide Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance group hospitals in 2003: Continued prevalence of VIM-producing pseudomonas spp. and increase of IMP-producing Acinetobacter spp

TL;DR: Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis suggested the intra- and inter-hospital spread of MBL-producing strains at some hospitals and blaVIM-like allele-positive P. aeruginosa remained highly prevalent, and the proportion of blaIMP-like trait-positive Acinetobacter spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of Amphotericin B Resistance in Candida haemulonii and Closely Related Species by Use of the Etest, Vitek-2 Yeast Susceptibility System, and CLSI and EUCAST Broth Microdilution Methods

TL;DR: This study provides the first data on the efficacy of the Etest-MH and its excellent agreement with Vitek-2 for discriminating AMB-resistant fromAMB-susceptible isolates of these Candida species.
