Abstract:

Microorganisms existed on this earth millions of years before the evolution of man. Beta-lactamase production is the most common mechanism of resistance in Gram negative bacteria. They are of significant concern because they restrict therapeutic options, cause treatment failures and are increasing in occurrence worldwide. Amp C betalactamase are Ambler class C or group I cephalosporinases that confer resistance to cephalosporins and cephamycins and are not affected by inhibitors (clavulanic acid, tazobactam and sulbactam).We are seeking effective prevention and detection of an ever- increasing range of infection by multiple drug resistance bacteria and combating antimicrobial resiatance including antibiotic resistance

In our study we determined the occurrence of chromosomal and plasmid mediated β-lactamases (AmpC) gene. In addition we evaluated the Prevalence of plasmid Amp C beta-lactamases in E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to find its burden on Egyptian community. We compared the performance of the phenotypic tests with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to reach the most convenient method of detection without compromising accuracy and precision. In the attempts of personalized anti-microbial therapy, we assessed the prevalence of DHA resistant strain of betalactamase resistance in Egypt and detecting its mutational sequence.
