Abstract
Aztreonam/avibactam (ATM/AVI) has been recently approved drug for clinical use in the European Union. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a novel selective medium for the isolation of ATM/AVI-resistant strains (Super ATM/AVI selective medium) to help to control their spread. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of ATM/AVI were determined using the broth microdilution method for 77 Gram-negative isolates, including 62 Enterobacterales and 15 Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The Super ATM/AVI selective medium was elaborated using optimal final concentrations of ATM at 5 mg/L and AVI at 4 mg/L, being supplemented with amphotericin B and vancomycin to prevent growth of yeasts and Gram-positive bacteria and with ZnSO4 to optimize the expression of metallo-β-lactamase producers. Super ATM/AVI showed high sensitivity (94.6%) and specificity (100%) at a detection limit of 103 CFU/mL.
期刊介绍:
Microbial Drug Resistance (MDR) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that covers the global spread and threat of multi-drug resistant clones of major pathogens that are widely documented in hospitals and the scientific community. The Journal addresses the serious challenges of trying to decipher the molecular mechanisms of drug resistance. MDR provides a multidisciplinary forum for peer-reviewed original publications as well as topical reviews and special reports.
MDR coverage includes:
Molecular biology of resistance mechanisms
Virulence genes and disease
Molecular epidemiology
Drug design
Infection control.
