Nineteen isolates of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella species were recovered from 7 hospitals in New York City. Most K. pneumoniae belonged to a single ribotype. Nucleotide sequencing identified KPC-2, a carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta -lactamase. In 3 strains, TEM-30, an inhibitor-resistant beta -lactamase, was detected. Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella species possessing KPC-2 are endemic in New York City. This study documents the identification of an inhibitor-resistant TEM beta -lactamase in the United States.
从纽约市的7家医院分离出19株耐碳青霉烯类克雷伯菌属菌株。大多数肺炎克雷伯菌属于单一核糖体分型。核苷酸测序鉴定出KPC-2,一种碳青霉烯水解β-内酰胺酶。在3株菌株中检测到TEM-30,一种耐抑制剂β-内酰胺酶。携带KPC-2的耐碳青霉烯类克雷伯菌属菌株在纽约市呈地方性流行。本研究记录了在美国鉴定出一种耐抑制剂的TEMβ-内酰胺酶。
