Two hundred ninety isolates of Escherichia coli were investigated for the production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs). Fourteen (4.8%) of the 290 strains were found to produce ESBLs. Each of the 14 strains produced one or two ESBLs, as follows: 10 strains produced TEM-52, 1 strain produced SHV-2a, 1 strain produced SHV-12, 1 strain produced a CMY-1-like enzyme, and 1 strain expressed SHV-2a and a CMY-1-like enzyme. Another two strains for which the MICs of ceftazidime and cefoxitin were high, were probable AmpC enzyme hyperproducers. Because of the high prevalence of TEM-52 in E. coli isolates, we further investigated the TEM-type ESBLs produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae in order to observe the distribution of TEM-52 enzymes among Enterobacteriaceae in Korea. All TEM enzymes produced by 12 strains of K. pneumoniae were identified as TEM-52. To evaluate the genetic relatedness among the organisms, ribotyping of TEM-52-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae was performed. The ribotyping profiles of the organisms showed similar but clearly different patterns. In conclusion, TEM-52 is the most prevalent TEM-type ESBL in Korea.
对290株大肠杆菌进行了超广谱β-内酰胺酶(ESBLs)产生情况的调查。在这290株菌株中,有14株(4.8%)被发现可产生ESBLs。14株中的每一株都产生一种或两种ESBLs,具体如下:10株产生TEM-52,1株产生SHV-2a,1株产生SHV-12,1株产生一种CMY-1样酶,还有1株同时表达SHV-2a和一种CMY-1样酶。另外两株头孢他啶和头孢西丁的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)较高,可能是AmpC酶高产菌株。由于TEM-52在大肠杆菌分离株中普遍存在,我们进一步研究了肺炎克雷伯菌产生的TEM型ESBLs,以观察TEM-52酶在韩国肠杆菌科细菌中的分布情况。12株肺炎克雷伯菌产生的所有TEM酶均被鉴定为TEM-52。为评估这些菌株之间的遗传相关性,对产生TEM-52的大肠杆菌和肺炎克雷伯菌进行了核糖体分型。这些菌株的核糖体分型图谱显示出相似但明显不同的模式。总之,TEM-52是韩国最常见的TEM型ESBL。
