  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Spread of carbapenemase producers in Enterobacteriaceae is now identified worldwide. Three main carbapenemases are reported which belong to three classes of ß-lactamases that are KPC, NDM and OXA-48. The main reservoirs of KPC are Klebsiella pneumoniae in the USA, Israel, Greece and Italy, of NDM are K. pneumoniae and Escherichia coli in the Indian subcontinent, and of OXA-48 are K. pneumoniae and E. coli in North Africa and Turkey. KPC producers remain mostly identified in nosocomial isolates whereas NDM and OXA-48 producers are both nosocomial and community-acquired pathogens. Control of their spread is still possible in hospital settings and relies on the use of rapid diagnostic techniques and strict implemention of hygiene measures.</dc:description>
