    Abstract: Objectives: To analyse the impact of the most clinically relevant β-lactamases and their interplay with low outer membrane permeability on the activity of cefiderocol, ceftazidime/avibactam, aztreonam/avibactam, cefepime/enmetazobactam, cefepime/ ... ...

    Abstract Objectives: To analyse the impact of the most clinically relevant β-lactamases and their interplay with low outer membrane permeability on the activity of cefiderocol, ceftazidime/avibactam, aztreonam/avibactam, cefepime/enmetazobactam, cefepime/taniborbactam, cefepime/zidebactam, imipenem/relebactam, meropenem/vaborbactam, meropenem/xeruborbactam and meropenem/nacubactam against recombinant Escherichia coli strains.
    Methods: We constructed 82 E. coli laboratory transformants expressing the main β-lactamases circulating in Enterobacterales (70 expressing single β-lactamase and 12 producing double carbapenemase) under high (E. coli TG1) and low (E. coli HB4) permeability conditions. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was determined by reference broth microdilution.
    Results: Aztreonam/avibactam, cefepime/zidebactam, cefiderocol, meropenem/xeruborbactam and meropenem/nacubactam were active against all E. coli TG1 transformants. Imipenem/relebactam, meropenem/vaborbactam, cefepime/taniborbactam and cefepime/enmetazobactam were also highly active, but unstable against most of MBL-producing transformants. Combination of β-lactamases with porin deficiency (E. coli HB4) did not significantly affect the activity of aztreonam/avibactam, cefepime/zidebactam, cefiderocol or meropenem/nacubactam, but limited the effectiveness of the rest of carbapenem- and cefepime-based combinations. Double-carbapenemase production resulted in the loss of activity of most of the compounds tested, an effect particularly evident for those E. coli HB4 transformants in which MBLs were present.
    Conclusions: Our findings highlight the promising activity that cefiderocol and new β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitors have against recombinant E. coli strains expressing widespread β-lactamases, including when these are combined with low permeability or other enzymes. Aztreonam/avibactam, cefiderocol, cefepime/zidebactam and meropenem/nacubactam will help to mitigate to some extent the urgency of new compounds able to resist MBL action, although NDM enzymes represent a growing challenge against which drug development efforts are still needed.

    Abstract Objectives: Little is known about IMP-producing Enterobacterales (IMP-Ent) in Europe. We analyzed at genomic and phenotypic level IMP-Ent isolates circulating in Spain in a 9-year period.
    Materials and methods: IMP-Ent isolates submitted to our reference laboratory were included. Antibiotic susceptibility was performed using microdilution method (EUCAST), and IMP-carbapenemase activity was measured with carbapenemase inhibitors, the β-CARBA method, the modified Hodge test (MHT), and the modified carbapenemase inhibition method (mCIM). All isolates collected were sequenced for high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing, core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST), and resistome analysis.
    Results: Fifty IMP-Ent isolates, collected from 19 hospitals in 13 Spanish provinces, were detected:
    Conclusion: IMP-Ent isolates remain infrequent in Spain, although in recent years have been circulating causing nosocomial outbreaks, being IMP-8-producing

    Abstract Carbapenem-resistant pathogens have been recognized as a health concern as they are both difficult to treat and detect in clinical microbiology laboratories. Researchers are making great efforts to develop highly specific, sensitive, accurate, and rapid diagnostic techniques, required to prevent the spread of these microorganisms and improve the prognosis of patients. In this context, CRISPR-Cas systems are proposed as promising tools for the development of diagnostic methods due to their high specificity; the Cas13a endonuclease can discriminate single nucleotide changes and displays collateral cleavage activity against single-stranded RNA molecules when activated. This technology is usually combined with isothermal pre-amplification reactions in order to increase its sensitivity. We have developed a new LAMP-CRISPR-Cas13a-based assay for the detection of OXA-48 and GES carbapenemases in clinical samples without the need for nucleic acid purification and concentration. To evaluate the assay, we used 68 OXA-48-like-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates as well as 64 Enterobacter cloacae complex GES-6, 14 Pseudomonas aeruginosa GES-5, 9 Serratia marcescens GES-6, 5 P. aeruginosa GES-6, and 3 P. aeruginosa (GES-15, GES-27, and GES-40) and 1 K. pneumoniae GES-2 isolates. The assay, which takes less than 2 h and costs approximately 10 € per reaction, exhibited 100% specificity and sensitivity (99% confidence interval [CI]) for both OXA-48 and all GES carbapenemases.

    Abstract The emergence of linezolid-resistant Enterococcus spp. (LRE) due to transferable resistance determinants is a matter of concern. To understand the contribution of the plasmid-encoded optrA and poxtA genes to the emergence of LRE, clinical isolates from different Spanish hospitals submitted to the Spanish Reference Laboratory from 2015-2018 were analysed. Linezolid resistance mechanisms were screened in all isolates by PCR and sequencing. Genetic relatedness of Enterococcus spp. carrying optrA and poxtA was studied by PFGE and MLST. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by broth microdilution using EUCAST standards. A total of 97 LRE isolates were studied, in 94 (96.9%) of which at least one resistance determinant was detected; 84/97 isolates (86.6%) presented a single resistance mechanism as follows: 45/84 (53.6%) carried the optrA gene, 38/84 (45.2%) carried the G2576T mutation and 1/84 (1.2%) carried the poxtA gene. In addition, 5/97 isolates (5.2%) carried both optrA and the G2576T mutation and 5/97 (5.2%) carried both optrA and poxtA. The optrA gene was more frequent in Enterococcus faecalis (83.6%) than Enterococcus faecium (11.1%) and was mainly associated with community-acquired urinary tract infections. Carriage of the poxtA gene was more frequent in E. faecium (13.9%) than E. faecalis (1.6%). Among the optrA-positive E. faecalis isolates, two main clusters were detected by PFGE. These two clusters belonged to ST585 and ST480 and were distributed throughout 11 and 6 Spanish provinces, respectively. This is the first description of LRE carrying the poxtA gene in Spain, including the co-existence of optrA and poxtA in five isolates.
