Part Description

LP220344-8   Enterobacter cloacae complex
The Enterobacter cloacae complex comprises of six phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous species: Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter asburiae, Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter kobei, Enterobacter ludwigii and Enterobacter nimipressuralis. Among the Enterobacter spp., the E. cloacae complex species are the most common cause of nosocomial bloodstream infections, with E. cloacae and E. hormaechei most frequently isolated in human clinical specimens. The emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance in the E. cloacae complex has increased the complexity of treating infections due to these organisms. Antibiotic resistance is mediated by production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and overproduction of AmpC β-lactamases. PMID: 22827309 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
