Outcomes of <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> infective endocarditis according to MIC of amoxicillin: a multicentric study Open
Background The incidence of Enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis is increasing over time. Data on the impact of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of amoxicillin on treatment outcomes are scarce. The objective of this study was…

Evaluation of ceftolozane-tazobactam susceptibility on a French nationwide collection of Enterobacterales Open
Overall, C/T showed good activity against wild-type Enterobacterales, AmpC producers, and ESBL-producing Escherichia coli but is less active against ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, and CRE. E-test® led to an underestimation of the MI…

Distribution of <i>Achromobacter</i> Species in 12 French Cystic Fibrosis Centers in 2020 by a Retrospective MALDI-TOF MS Spectrum Analysis Open
Achromobacter spp. are nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli mainly studied among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The identification of the 19 species within the genus is time-consuming ( nrdA -sequencing), thus data concerning the distributi…

Microbiological Diagnosis of Osteoarticular Infections: Comparison between BacT/Alert Bottles and Schaedler Broth Open
Microbiological diagnosis of OAI is based on culture on several media. French experts recommend the use of liquid media such as Schaedler broth, but many laboratories use blood culture media with automated detection in substitution because…

Antimicrobial Resistance in Enterobacterales Recovered from Urinary Tract Infections in France Open
In the context of increasing antimicrobial resistance in Enterobacterales, the management of these UTIs has become challenging. We retrospectively assess the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in Enterobacterales isolates recovered fro…

ISAba1-dependent overexpression of eptA in clinical strains of Acinetobacter baumannii resistant to colistin Open
Background Colistin resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii often results from mutational activation of the two-component system PmrAB and subsequent addition of phospho-ethanolamine (pEtN) to lipooligosaccharide by up-regulated pEtN transfe…
