Evaluation of the Hodge Test and the Imipenem-EDTA Double-Disk Synergy Test for Differentiating Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Isolates of Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp.
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of the Hodge test and those of the imipenem (IPM)-EDTA, ceftazidime (CAZ)-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), and CAZ-sodium mercaptoacetic acid (SMA) double-disk synergy tests (DDSTs) were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imipenem-EDTA Disk Method for Differentiation of Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp.
TL;DR: In this article, a disk with imipenem plus 750 μg of EDTA was used to detect metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing gram-negative bacilli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modified Hodge and EDTA-disk synergy tests to screen metallo-β-lactamase-producing strains of Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter species
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Acquired Metallo-β-Lactamase Gene, blaSIM-1, in a Class 1 Integron from Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates from Korea
Kyungwon Lee,Jong Hwa Yum,Dongeun Yong,Hyuk Lee,Heung Dong Kim,Jean Denis Docquier,Gian Maria Rossolini,Yunsop Chong +7 more
TL;DR: The blaSIM-1 gene was carried on a gene cassette inserted into a class 1 integron, which included three additional cassettes (arr-3, catB3, and aadA1).
Journal ArticleDOI
blaVIM-2 Cassette-Containing Novel Integrons in Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida Isolates Disseminated in a Korean Hospital
Kyungwon Lee,Jong Back Lim,Jong Hwa Yum,Dongeun Yong,Yunsop Chong,June Myung Kim,David M. Livermore +6 more
TL;DR: The metallo-β-lactamase produced by these imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas isolates was VIM-2, and the accumulation of producers reflected clonal dissemination as well as horizontal spread.
