The rise of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) poses a significant challenge to global healthcare. As noted by the CDC, "CRE are usually resistant to all β-lactam agents as well as most other classes of antimicrobial agents," leaving healthcare providers with very limited treatment options. Inadequate detection of these pathogens can result in healthcare-associated outbreaks, making early identification and isolation crucial to preventing transmission. CHROMagar™ mSuperCARBA—a next-generation chromogenic medium designed for the sensitive detection of a wide array of carbapenemases, including KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, and OXA. This innovative medium achieves an impressive limit of detection (10 CFU/mL), even for weakly expressed carbapenemases like OXA-48, all while maintaining high selectivity. Key Features of CHROMagar™ mSuperCARBA: • Highly Sensitive: Detects most carbapenemases, including OXA-48, overnight. • Limit of Detection: Sensitivity of 10 CFU/mL for identifying low-level producers. • Selective and Specific: Inhibits beta-lactam susceptible bacteria, ESBL, and AmpC hyperproducers. • Rapid Results: Provides results within 18-24 hours. Empower your laboratory with the capabilities to combat carbapenem resistance effectively ➡ https://bit.ly/4b8M6o0 #Microbiology #InfectionControl #CarbapenemResistance #CRE #Diagnostics #PublicHealth #RapidTesting #CHROMagar

If antibiotic resistance among Gram-negative bacteria is to be controlled - testing direct from the sample and affordable molecular technology with 30-minute TAT are essentials. Thank you eazyplex for delivering.
Antibiotic resistance among Gram-negative bacteria has emerged as a significant global health concern, particularly with the rise of carbapenem-resistant organisms. Key players in this crisis include 𝘒𝘭𝘦𝘣𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘢 𝘱𝘯𝘦𝘶𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘦, 𝘌𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘪, and Acinetobacter baumannii, which are known for their capacity to produce carbapenemases that render last-resort antibiotics ineffective. Timely identification of these resistant strains is crucial for improving patient outcomes and controlling the spread of infections. Advanced molecular diagnostics are paving the way for rapid and accurate detection of resistance genes directly from clinical samples, including blood, swabs, and urine. This approach ensures that healthcare professionals can quickly and effectively identify genes associated with carbapenem resistance, thereby initiating targeted treatment promptly. Immunoassays provide quick results, but they often miss critical resistance genes due to their reliance on antigen detection. In contrast, molecular tests offer: • Higher sensitivity by detecting the actual resistance genes • Faster results (within 30 minutes from various sample types) • Broader scope in identifying multiple carbapenemase types, giving healthcare professionals comprehensive data to inform treatment decisions.
