Molecular Characterization of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales

Molecular Characterization of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales Isolated From Clinical Samples in Egypt

Bacterial infections with carbapenem resistant pathogens are one of the major threats in immunocompromised patients, especially among cancer patients .Furthermore, Gram negative pathogens are becoming increasingly prevalent and have become an ongoing global health concern .Emergence of Gram-negative pathogens, especially Enterobacterales that avert many of the human defense mechanisms are alarmingly increasing and most of these pathogens are resistant to many of the in-use antibiotics including carbapenems .

Inclusion Criteria:

• All patients admitted to Sohag Oncology Center have different infections and isolated organism one of carbapenem resistant enterobacterales detected by antibiotic sensitivity test.

Exclusion Criteria:

• All patients admitted to Sohag Oncology Center having infections in different sites and isolated organisms are not one of enterobacterales and not carbapenem resistant.
