“…Double Disk Synergy Test (DDST) and Combined Disc Test (CDT) are most commonly used to detect the MBL producing P. aeruginosa then Hodge test. Modified Hodge test detects only carbapenemase activity, which prevents the use of EDTA and therefore, does not confirm the metal dependence of the carbapenemase (Kali et al, 2013). Modified Hodge test, DDST and the CDT are easy, reliable, simple to perform and cheaper (Qu et al, 2009).…”

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram negative aerobic rod shaped bacterium and is an opportunistic pathogen that usually causes nosocomial infection in immunocompromised patient with various infections and affects normal healthy human as well. P. aeruginosa is also an omnipresent pathogen that can be inhabited in soil, water, vegetable, human and animal. Metallo-β-lactamases (MBL) producing P. aeruginosa are known to be resistant to almost the entire anti-pseudomonas agent via mechanism of low outer membrane permeability, β-lactamases synthesis and the efflux systems. This study was conducted to detect the potential of metallo-β-lactamases producing P. aeruginosa presence in water samples from various parts of Malaysia. In this study, 52 water samples were collected from various parts of Malaysia. These P. aeruginosa isolates were processed to these phenotypic methods, Hodge test which is used to detect the carbapenemase production, Imipenem-EDTA combined disc test (CDT). Imipenem-EDTA double disc synergy test (DDST) was used to determine metallo-betalactamases producing P. aeruginosa. Among 52 various sources of water samples, 13 water samples had positive P. aeruginosa isolates. 6 out of 13 positive isolates have shown positive results in Hodge test, CDT and DDST. All metallo-β-lactamases producing isolates are multi-drug resistant. Among water samples from various parts of Malaysia, MBL producing P. aeruginosa are highly found in Selangor followed by KL, and this P. aeruginosa are detected from drain followed by river. Although some advantages and disadvantages exist among these phenotyping methods, still CDT and DDST are optimal to detect MBL.

The multidrug resistant Escherichia coli strains causes multiple clinical infections and has become a rising problem globally. The metallo-β-lactamases encoding genes are very severe in gram-negative bacteria especially E. coli. This study was aimed to evaluate the prevalence of MBLs among the clinical isolates of E. coli. A total of 65 E. coli isolates were collected from various clinical samples of Malaysian patients with bacterial infections. The conventional microbiological test was performed for isolation and identification of E. coli producing MBLs strains in this vicinity. Multidrug Resistance (MDR) of E. coli isolates were assessed using disk diffusion test. Phenotypic methods, as well as genotypic-PCR methods, were performed to detect the presence of metallo-β-lactamase resistance genes (blaIMP, blaVIM) in imipenem resistant strains. Out of 65 E. coli isolates, 42 isolates (57.3%) were MDR. The isolates from urine (19) produced significantly more MDR (10) isolates than other sources. Additionally, 19 (29.2%) imipenemresistant E. coli isolates contained 10 MBLs gene, 7(36.8%) isolates contained blaIMP and 3(15.7%) isolates contained blaVIM genes. This study revealed the significant occurrence of MBL producing E. coli isolates in clinical specimens and its association with health risk factors indicating an alarming situation in Malaysia. It demands an appropriate concern to avoid failure of treatments and infection control management.
