Resistance to Antibiotics of Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae Producing TEM-116 ?-Lactamases / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To understand characteristics of TEM-116 ?-lactamases through comparative study on resistance to antibiotics of clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing TEM-116 ?-lactamases.METHODS K.pneumoniae susceptibility to ?-lactamases was determined by disk diffusion tests,and their isoelectric points(PI) were detected using analytic isoelectric focusing(IEF),and resistance to antibiotics of clinical isolates of K.pneumoniae producing TEM-116 and TEM-1?-lactamases was studied.RESULTS Both of K.pneumoniae producing TEM-116 ?-lactamases and producing TEM-1 ?-lactamases were 100% resistant to AMP,and highly resistant to the first and second generation cephalosporin,but greatly susceptible to FEP and IPM.There was greatly difference between resistance to AMC,TZP,AMK,and GEN of clinical isolates of K.pneumoniae producing TEM-116 ?-lactamases and that of K.pneumoniae producing TEM-116 ?-lactamases,the TEM-116 isolates were higher resistant than TEM-1 isolates.Analytic IEF results showed that PI of TEM-116 ?-lactamases was 5.4,and most strains of K.pneumoniae TEM-116 ?-lactamases displayed two electrophoresis bands or more,only one strain of them just displayed one band,resistant to majority of antibiotics.CONCLUSIONS The results show that K.pneumoniae producing TEM-116 ?-lactamases are more resistant to antibiotics than K.pneumoniae producing TEM-1 ?-lactamases,and indicate TEM-116 ?-lactamases work as ESBLs.
