Scandinavia is considered a region with a low prevalence of antimicrobial resistance. However, the number of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria is increasing, including metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In this study MBL-producing P. aeruginosa isolates identified in Norway (n = 4)

Pseudomonas aeruginosa offers substantial therapeutic challenges due to its high intrinsic resistance to many antibiotics and its propensity to develop mutational and/or adaptive resistance. The PA14 comprehensive mutant library was screened for mutants exhibiting either two- to eightfold increased susceptibilities

The genes for multidrug efflux pump OqxAB, which is active on fluoroquinolones, were found in human clinical isolates on a plasmid in Escherichia coli and on the chromosome of Klebsiella pneumoniae. IS26-like sequences flanked the plasmid-mediated oqxAB genes, suggesting that

The viral enzyme integrase is essential for the replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and represents a remaining target for antiretroviral drugs. Here, we describe the modification of a quinolone antibiotic to produce the novel integrase inhibitor JTK-303

A surveillance study was performed in four Singapore public hospitals from 2006 to 2008 to determine the correlation between antibiotic prescription and Gram-negative bacterial antimicrobial resistance. Targeted organisms included ceftriaxone- and ciprofloxacin-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, as well as
