Detection of colonisation by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase or carbapenemase producing Enterobacterales from frozen stool specimens

Abstract:

Objective
To determine the impact of pre-culture ultra-low temperature (ULT, − 80 °C) storage of human stool specimens on recovery of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) or Carbapenemase (CPM) producing Enterobacterales.

Results
Twenty stool specimens from a community-based household colonisation study in Cambodia were cultured fresh and after 4–5 days and ~ 6 months of ULT storage (as a slurry in tryptone soya broth–10% glycerol). Presumptive ESBL- and CPM-Escherichia co...
