| [screening methods for detection of metallo-beta-lactamase producing gram negative rods]. | modified hodge test and a method using a disk with imipenem plus 1000 mg of edta were used to determine the presence of metallo-beta-lactamase producing gram-negative rods among 166 clinical isolates from hospitals in iaşi and galaţi. of 9 imipenem resistant strains found, only one pseudomonas aeruginosa gave positive results with both tests and other two p. aeruginosa clinical isolates gave negative results with both tests. the rest of the strains (2 p. aeruginosa, 2 acinetobacter baumanii, 1 s ... | 2005 | 16607806 |
| [detection of metallo-beta-lactamases in gram-negative bacilli isolated in hospitals from romania--research fellowship report]. | the emergence of carbapenem resistance in gram-negative bacilli has become a global concern since these beta-lactams are often the only effective treatment left against many multiresistant strains. metallo-beta-lactamase-producing isolates are now widespread worldwide, and especially in europe where they have been responsible for rather large outbreaks. our study proposes to investigate the presence of such isolates in romania and to characterize them at the molecular level. a total of 28 clinic ... | 2007 | 18441958 |
| etiology and resistance profile of isolated strains from severe systemic infections in patients with immunodepression--experience of the iasi infectious diseases hospital 2011-2014. | microbial resistance is an increasingly serious threat to global public health and it is linked to patient's age, immune status, and also antibiotic overuse or misuse and repeated hospitalizations. the high incidence of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria requires rethinking the first-line therapeutic schemes. | 2016 | 26793861 |
