| OBJECTIVE: Describe the presence of CTX-M-1 phylogenetic subgroup extended-spectrum i-lactamases (ESBL), associated with TEM and SHV genes, and the gene encoding cephalosporinase, CMY-2 in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from community-acquired urinary tract infections. METHODS: 102 E. coli and 21 K. pneumoniae were collected from patients with culture-proven urinary tract infection (UTI), during February and March, 2011. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed by disk diffusion according to the standards of the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute. Screening for cephalosporins-resistant E. coli and K. pneumoniae was performed by PCR assay for blaTEM, blaSHV, blaCTX-M-1,-2,-8,-9, blaPER-2 and blaCMY-2 genes. Statistical... |

| The purpose of this study was to identify the genes coding for resistance to ceftazidime and imipenem and describe the molecular epidemiology of A. baumannii strains isolated from a clinical center in Colombia. Twenty isolates of imipenem-resistant A. baumannii from an equal number of patients with nosocomial infections were obtained. Primers were used to amplify genes bla IMP, bla VIM, bla OXA-23, bla OXA-24, bla OXA-58, bla OXA-51 and bla ADC-7. To detect insertion sequences ISAba1/bla OXA-23, ISAba1/bla OXA-51 and ISAba1/bla ADC-7, mapping by PCR using combinations of reverse primers ISAba1 and reverse primers of bla OXA-23, bla OXA-51 and bla ADC-7 were used. The amplification products were purified and cloned into PCR 2.1-TOPO vector and transformed... |
