Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the resistance and the distribution of the main ?-lactamases encoding gene in Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from four hospitals in Hangzhou city to provide the basic data for the optional treatment of A.baumannii infection.METHODS The identification of A.baumannii was performed using VITEK-AMS60.The minimum inhibitory concentrations(MIC) was examined by agar dilution and E-test.The homology of the resistant isolates was finished by pulsed field gel electrophoresis(PFGE).PCR and sequencing were used to analyze the ?-lactamases encoding gene of the 36 strains of imipenem-resistant A.baumannii.RESULTS All of the imipenem-resistant isolates produced carbapenemase OXA-23,and 5 isolates produced PER-1,2 isolates produced TEM-1 except OXA-23.No metallo-?-lactamases were detected.No plasmid was extracted.Clone transmission of the imipenem-resistant strains existed in the 4 hospitals.Most strains were isolated from intensive care unit(ICU). CONCLUSIONS The clone transmission of imipenem-resistant A.baumannii strains is occurred in 4 hospitals.All strains produce carbapenemase OXA-23.Five strains also produce PER-1 type extended-spectrum ?-lactamases.Two strains also produce TEM-1 type extended-spectrum ?-lactamases.
