LP248932-8   Bacterial beta-lactam resistance AmpC
Bacterial AmpC beta lactamases confer resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and monobactams and are encoded by either plasmid-mediated or chromosomal genes. Specific AmpC beta lactamase genes include ACC, ACT, FOX, MIR, MOX, CMY and DHA. Other types of bacterial beta-lactamase enzymes include carbapenemases and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL). PMID: 18093140 The genes are named with the prefix "bla", which stands for "beta-lactam", followed by the enzyme, for example, blaACC.

LP265773-4   Bacterial ABXBACT probe.amp.tar
PCR-based Methods for bacterial susceptibility are similar to genotyping for viral susceptibility, in that resistance or susceptibility is inferred based on the presence or absence of specific genetic information that is known to encode resistance to a specific antibiotic or group of antibiotics. For bacteria, resistance is often conferred by genes that are carried on plasmids, which can be transferred from one species to another. These genes encode proteins that specifically inhibit certain antibiotics, such as carbapenems or aminoglycosides. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
