The article presents information about circulating isolates Klebsiella pneumoniae in a hospital megapolis with properties of hypervirulence and simultaneous multiresistance. The resulting K. pneumonia isolates are of particular importance due to the emergence of resistance to almost all β-lactams due to the presence of carbapenemase metal-β-lactamase. Furthermore, the isolated strains producing carbapenemases possess mechanisms of resistance to a wide range of antimicrobial preparations, and the types of infectious process caused by carbapenemazo-producing enterobacteries are characterized by a high lethality level. Microbiological, biochemical, biophysical, molecular-genetic, biological, bioinformational and statistical methods of research were used in the work. A prospective method was used to identify the source of the infections. In the first stage, a microbiological study was carried out on biomaterials obtained from patients treated in a hospital in Saint Petersburg. After a microbiological study, 52 isolates of K. pneumoniae were obtained, 53.8 % of isolates had a hypermucoid phenotype and 98 % had carbapenemases:blaNDM type — 49 (92 %), blaNDM+OXA-48-like — 3 (8 %). Isolates with two new phenotypes have been isolated (no. 2511 and no. 2512). Isolates of no. 2512 LD50 had 10*2 BAC/ml, and plasmids such as Incfib(Mar), Inchi1b, and Incr were also found, with Incr-A plasmid emitted encoding resistance to fluoroquinolone: aac(6’)-Ib-cr and to β-lactam antibiotics: blaTEM-1B. The described data confirm the opinions of the researchers about the possible formation of a new “super pathogen” — instantaneously hypervirulent and plural resistant strain of K. pneumoniae.

Members of the genus Klebsiella are among the leading microbial pathogens associated with nosocomial infection. At the same time, most nosocomial infections are caused by strains resistant to antibiotics. Here, we announce the complete genome sequences of four lytic polysaccharide-degrading bacteriophages, which will be used in complex therapeutic preparations.

ABSTRACT Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are active against oxyimino cephalosporins and monobactams. Twenty-one Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates obtained between 1991 and 1995 at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane, Australia, were subject to amplification and sequencing of the SHV β-lactamase-encoding genes. Thirteen strains were phenotypically ESBL positive. Of these, six strains carried the bla SHV-2a gene and seven strains carried the bla SHV-12 gene. Eight strains were phenotypically ESBL negative. Of these, seven strains carried the non-ESBL bla SHV-11 gene and one strain carried the non-ESBL bla SHV-1 gene. There was complete correspondence between the ESBL phenotype and the presence or absence of an ESBL-encoding gene(s). In addition, it was determined that of the 13 ESBL-positive strains, at least 4 carried copies of a non-ESBL-encoding gene in addition to the bla SHV-2a or bla SHV12 gene. A minisequencing-based assay was developed to discriminate the different SHV classes. This technique, termed “first-nucleotide change,” involves the identification of the base added to a primer in a single-nucleotide extension reaction. The assay targeted polymorphisms at the first bases of codons 238 and 240 and reliably discriminated ESBL-positive strains from ESBL-negative strains and also distinguished strains carrying bla SHV-2a from strains carrying bla SHV-12. In addition, this method was used to demonstrate an association between the relative copy numbers of bla SHV genes in individual strains and the levels of antibiotic resistance.

A multiplex PCR is described which detects capsular types K1, K2, K5, K54 and K57, which are those most associated with invasive disease or pathogenicity, a further capsular type (K20), two putative virulence factors (rmpA and wcaG) and the 16S–23S internal transcribed spacer unit of Klebsiella pneumoniae, facilitating identification of this organism. wcaG encodes capsular fucose production and was associated with capsular types K1 and K54, but was also found in strains of other capsular types; 18 of the 543 isolates screened were PCR-positive for this gene. An eight-locus variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) scheme was designed, which provided discrimination at a level similar to that afforded by PFGE among a panel of 36 isolates representing 29 PFGE types. All isolates tested of the virulent K1 clone of CC23, associated with pyogenic liver abscesses, shared the same VNTR profile, which may be helpful in identifying this clone; such isolates were also PCR-positive for allS. These methods provide a rapid means of characterizing and typing isolates of this important agent of community-acquired and nosocomial infection.

Background: Nosocomial infection outbreaks in neonatal services are a serious healthcare concern in both developed and developing countries, but few studies have been conducted in sub-Saharan Africa. Objective: This study explored the etiology of septicemia in neonates and associated patterns of antimicrobial susceptibility in Gabon. Methods: We analyzed cultures from neonates’ blood and swabs from medical personnel and equipment located in the neonatology service. Results: Sixty-eight microorganisms were isolated from the medical personnel and equipment; 46 microorganisms were isolated from neonates’ blood culture. Klebsiella pneumoniae spp pneumoniae was the most common bacteria found in both (30.6% and 26.9%, respectively). All Klebsiella pneumoniae spp pneumonia isolates were resistant to amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, gentamycin resistance ranged from 93% to 100%, and cephalosporin resistance ranged from 33.3% to 47%. Conclusions: Awareness of the etiology, prevalence, and outcome of nosocomial infection is the first and most important step to appropriate interventions

In the developing countries including Indonesia, there still have problems with infectious diseases. Generally the hospitalized patientsin the Surgery section through have antimicrobial therapy. The treatment is intended to prevent nosocomial infection that usually foundin overnight treatment patients at the department of surgery. This study is carried out to know the pattern of micro-organism’s resistanceand sensitivity against various antimicrobial at department of surgery, Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital Makassar, January–June2008. A descriptive study of retrospectively collective data was carried out on 160 specimens by sensitivity test at the department ofsurgery, Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Makassar Hospital, started from January up to June 2008. The five common bacterial found in thisstudy where Staphylococcus epidermidis, Klebsiella pneumonia, Enterobacter agglomerans, Staphylococcus saprophytic and Escherichiacoli. The sensitive antimicrobial drugs found where Vancomicin, Sulbactam/Cepoperazone, Cefepim, Gentamicin, Ceftazidim, Novobiocin,followed by the resistance antimicrobial were Methicillin, Tetracycline, Cefuroxim, Erythromycin, and Doxyciclin. The most bacterial typefound was Klebsiella pneumoniae, the most sensitive antimicrobial was Vancomicin and the most resistances were Methicillin.
