Definitions
- the field of the invention is that of microbiological analysis by means of biochemistry, and in particular the detection and identification of microorganisms, for instance of bacteria or yeasts.
- Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a major public health problem.
- the resistance of infectious microorganisms to a treatment has developed at the same time as anti-infectious molecules and today represents a major obstacle in therapeutics. This resistance is responsible for many problems, including difficulties in detection in the laboratory, limited treatment options and a deleterious impact on clinical outcome.
- Enzymatic inactivation is the most common mechanism of acquired resistance in terms of number of species and of antibiotics involved.
- chromosomal class C cephalosporinases today constitute one of the predominant resistance mechanisms of gram-negative bacteria, the bacteria expressing such enzymes being resistant to cephalosporins.
- ⁇ -lactamases are enzymes expressed by certain bacteria, capable of hydrolyzing the C—N bond of the ⁇ -lactame ring, the basic structure of antibiotics of the ⁇ -lactamine family, so as to give a microbiologically inactive product.
- ⁇ -lactamase inhibitors such as clavulanic acid (CA), tazobactam and sulbactam
- CA clavulanic acid
- tazobactam tazobactam
- sulbactam sulbactam
- Gram-negative bacteria which produce high-level chromosome class C cephalosporinases reference is made to HL Case bacteria
- gram-negative bacteria which produce extended-spectrum ⁇ -lactamase reference is then made to ESBL bacteria
- HL Case and ESBL bacteria are resistant to treatments based on 1st- and 2nd-generation penicillins and cephalosporines, but also on 3rd-generation cephalosporines (C3G) (cefotaxim CTX, ceftazidime CAZ, cefpodoxime CPD, ceftriaxone CRO) and monobactams (aztreonam ATM).
- 7 ⁇ -methoxycephalosporins (cephamycins: cefoxitin, cefotetan) and carbapenems (imipenem, meropenem, ertapenem) generally conserve their activity.
- ESBLs are inhibited by ⁇ -lactamase inhibitors (BLIs), which makes it possible to differentiate them from other cephalosporinases.
- Escherichia coli bacterium can thus be HL Case and ESBL.
- ESBL-positive enterobacteria have a tendency to disseminate the resistance by clonal transmission of strains or conjugative plasma transfer, they represent a problem in terms of controlling infections.
- Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae remain the most common ESBL-producing species.
- ESBLs have greatly broadened their panel of host species.
- many species of enterobacteria and of nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa ) have also been reported to ESBL producers.
- Staphylococcus aureus bacteria which are also pathogenic bacteria that develop many mechanisms of resistance, such as resistance to methicillin, penicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, or vancomycin.
- Enterococcus faecium is another multiresistant bacterium found in the hospital environment, which can be resistant to penicillin, vancomycin and linezolide.
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis is commonly resistant to isoniazid and to rifampicin.
- Other pathogens offer certain resistances, such as Salmonella, Campylobacter and Streptococcus.
- the search for microorganisms resistant to a treatment is carried out according to the following steps:
- This succession of steps involves a considerable amount of time between taking the sample that may contain microorganisms and prescribing a treatment that is appropriate for the patient. Furthermore, the user must generally perform steps for transferring microorganims from a first medium to a second medium manually, which can induce problems, in particular, of contamination, but also risks to the handler's health.
- ESBLs broad-spectrum beta-lactamases
- a diffusion technique as described in the publication by Jacoby & Han (J Clin Microbiol. 34(4): 908-11, 1996), which does not however give any information regarding the identification of the strains tested: it is possible to determine whether or not the bacterium is a ESBL-producing bacterium, but it is not possible to distinguish whether such a bacterium is an Escherichia coli or a Klebsiella pneumoniae.
- Metabolic substrates are also used for detecting the presence of ESBLs or HL cases.
- AES laboratories proposes a medium in a biplate combining a Drigalski medium with cefotaxim and a MacConkey medium with ceftazidime.
- the Drigalski and MacConkey media make it possible to reveal lactose acidification, a metabolism which is present in a very large number of enterobacterial species.
- such a medium only makes it possible to distinguish resistant bacteria from non-resistant bacteria, and does not make it possible to distinguish bacteria expressing a ESBL from those expressing an HL Case. Neither does this medium make it possible to identify specific bacterial species, nor does it make it possible, for example, to discriminate between E. coli bacteria and K. pneumoniae bacteria.
- the present invention therefore proposes to improve the prior art by providing a novel diagnostic tool which allows a gain in time, in reliability and in relevance with respect to the therapy implemented.
- Our invention makes it possible, in a single step, to identify the species of microorganisms present in a sample, and to determine their mechanism of resistance in order to propose a treatment appropriate to each patient.
- This invention is particularly suitable for discriminating various species of microorganisms, which have various mechanisms of resistance to various treatments, but all of which may be present in the same sample.

- a biplate of CPS ID 3 base chromogenic medium for detecting microorganisms in urine, and sold by bioMerieux under the reference 43541 with one half-agar containing an antibiotic and one half-agar containing an antibiotic/ ⁇ -lactamases inhibitor combination was used.
- ESBL-positive strains high level cephalosporinase-producing strains (HL Case) and wild-type strains are compared in the trials.
- strains of gram-positive cocci Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Streptococcus agalactiae
- gram-positive bacilli Lactobacillus spp
- yeasts Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida krusei, Candida dubliniensis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Geotrichum capitatum .
- the medium used was a CPS ID3 medium (reference 43541) also comprising at least one antibiotic and at least one resistance mechanism inhibitor.
- composition of the media tested was the following:
- Osmosed water is added and the whole is homogenized and melted in a waterbath at 100° C.
- the base medium is dispensed into flasks, the number of which corresponds to the total number of media to be tested during the process.
- the flasks are then autoclaved for 15 min at 121° C.
- the media are brought back to and kept molten at 55 ⁇ 3° C. in a waterbath, in order to sterilely add the thermolabile additives (sterilized beforehand by filtration through 0.22 ⁇ m).
- the media are then poured into biplates 90 mm in diameter (i.e. approximately 9.5 ml/half-plate), and left on a flat surface so that they can set.
- the surface of the agars is then dried under a laminar flow hood for 30 min.
- An inoculum of 0.5 McF is prepared, in physiological saline, from 24-hour precultures at 36° C. ⁇ 2° C. in an aerobic atmosphere on TSA medium, and then 1 ⁇ l of this suspension is transferred into 5 ml of physiological saline.
- a range of inocula made it possible to determine that the optimal amount of bacteria to be inoculated was from 10 3 to 10 4 CFU/ml.
- the inoculation is carried out directly on the two half-agars using a sterile swab. The cultures are then incubated at 37° C. in an aerobic atmosphere.
- Reading of media the readings are carried out at 18 hours ( ⁇ 30 min), 24 h ( ⁇ 1 h) and 48 h ( ⁇ 4 h). The density and the size of the colonies, and the appearance, the color and the coloration intensities of the mass and of the isolated colonies were observed, according to the following reading scales 1 to 3: 0: no growth; 0.1: trace of growth; 0.25: colonies of diameter ⁇ 0.5 mm; 0.5: colonies of 0.5 mm in diameter; 0.75: 0.5 mm ⁇ diameter ⁇ 1 mm; 1: colonies of 1 mm in diameter; 1.25: 1 mm ⁇ diameter ⁇ 1.5 mm; 1.5: colonies 1.5 mm in diameter; 2: colonies 2 mm in diameter; 3: colonies of diameter>2 mm.
- the low value corresponds to the minimum concentration of the antibiotic required to inhibit the wild-type strains of the enterobacteria tested.
- the high value corresponds to the maximum concentration of the antibiotic that can be used without affecting the growth of the ESBL-positive strains tested.
- ceftazidime is the only antibiotic tested and used in the detection of ESBLs which showed an activity on the wild-type strains of P. aeruginosa. A range was prepared in order to define the minimum concentration for complete inhibition of these strains, and the limiting value is 1.5 mg/l.
- ⁇ -lactamases inhibitors i.e. clavulanic acid, tazobactam and sulbactam.
- a range was prepared for each one, in the presence of cefotaxime, in order to determine the optimum concentration for inhibiting the ESBL-positive strains without impairing the growth of the HL Case strains.
- Clavulanic acid appeared to be the most effective BLI in the presence of cefotaxime. 25 Tazobactam and sulbactam required concentrations of greater than 2 mg/l in order to inhibit the ESBL-positive strains, whereas clavulanic acid was more active at much lower concentrations, over a broad operating range (from 0.1 to 8 mg/l when it is used in combination with cefotaxime).
- ⁇ -lactamase inhibitors had no effect on the expression of the bacterial enzymatic activities on the chromogenic medium.
- the groups of microorganisms were separated and identified both on control CPS ID 3 medium and on the media comprising ⁇ -lactamase inhibitors.
- the wild-type strains including those of pyocyanic bacillus
- the ESBL-positive strains of the enterobacteria tested by the addition of the BIL are included in the wild-type strains (including those of pyocyanic bacillus), and the ESBL-positive strains of the enterobacteria tested by the addition of the BIL.
- a medium according to the invention was also employed for use in a biplate, one of the sides containing an antibiotic, and the second containing another antibiotic or a combination of antibiotics. Given that the same CPS ID 3 medium base is used on either side, these two sides were differentiated by the presence of a dye.
- the dye tested gives the medium a green color.
- the coloration has made it possible to readily differentiate the 2 sides of the biplate without affecting the fertility of the medium, or impairing the reading of the enzymatic activities of the colonies.
- the values selected were the following:
- ESBLs are a mechanism of resistance to ⁇ -lactamines that is found only in gram-negative bacilli; it is therefore advisable to inhibit the gram-positive bacteria via the medium.
- a concentration between 2 and 32 mg/l, and in particular 2 to 5 mg/l makes it possible to inhibit the sensitive gram-positive bacteria without interfering with the detection of the ESBL bacteria.
- a concentration between 2 and 64 mg/l, and in particular 4 to 16 mg/l makes it possible to inhibit the sensitive gram-positive bacteria without interfering with the detection of the ESBL bacteria.
- the inhibition of the gram-positive bacteria made it possible to improve the detection of the ESBL bacteria in polymicrobial samples and the specificity of their coloration.
- a medium according to the invention can also comprise antifungals in order to inhibit the possible presence of yeasts which could grow on the medium and which could impair microorganism growth.
- amphotericin B under the conditions tested, a concentration between 1 and 32 mg/l, and in particular 2 to 8 mg/l, makes it possible to inhibit the sensitive yeasts without interfering with the detection of the ESBL bacteria.
- a concentration of between 1 and 64 mg/l, and in particular 4 to 16 mg/l makes it possible to inhibit the sensitive gram-positive bacteria without interfering with the detection of the ESBL bacteria.
- the inhibition of the yeasts made it possible to improve the detection of ESBL bacteria in polymicrobial samples and the specificity of their coloration.
- This second example is based on the phenotypic detection of ESBLs using the reduction of susceptibility to antibiotics and the sensitivity of HL Cases to combinations with tobramycin or cloxacillin or dicloxacillin, and presents the use of a cephalosporine mentioned above (CTX, CAZ, CPD, CRO, ATM) in combination with a compound that inhibits cephalosporinases (cloxacillin, dicloxacillin and tobramycin).
- CX, CAZ, CPD, CRO, ATM cephalosporinases
- Such a medium makes it possible to inhibit bacteria which have a “natural” cephalosporinase, most of those which have only a high level cephalosporinase (HL Case), while at the same time allowing growth of ESBL bacteria.
- the medium used was a CPS ID3 medium (43541), also comprising:
- Osmosed water is added and the whole is homogenized and melted in a waterbath at 100° C.
- the basic medium is dispensed into flasks, the number of which corresponds to the total number of media to be tested during the process.
- the flasks are then autoclaved for 15 min at 121° C.
- the media are brought back to and kept molten at 55 ⁇ 3° C. in a waterbath, in order to sterilely add the thermolabile additives (sterilized beforehand by filtration through 0.22 ⁇ m).
- the media are then poured into plates 35 mm in diameter and left on a flat surface so that they can set.
- the surface of the agars is then dried under a laminar flow hood for 30 min.
- This step is carried out as described in example 1.
- Medium A comprising ceftazidime and tobramycin made it possible to inhibit all the wild-type strains and all the HL Cases tested. Only the ESBL-positive strains were detected on this medium.
- Medium B comprising ceftriaxone and cloxacillin made it possible to inhibit all the HL Cases and all the wild-type strains except HL Case and wild-type P aeruginosa, and grew only the majority of the ESBL-positive strains.
- Medium C comprising cefpodoxime and di-cloxacillin made it possible to inhibit all the wild-type strains and the majority of the HL Cases, without affecting the growth of ESBL-positive strains.
- This third example is based on the phenotypic detection of enterococci resistant to glycopeptides, with specific distinction of Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium, using the reduction of susceptibility to antibiotics and the demonstration of an enzymatic activity: ⁇ -glucosidase, and of a metabolic activity: Methyl- ⁇ -glucoside acidification.
- the medium used was a Columbia medium (51026), also comprising:
- Osmosed water is added and the whole is homogenized and melted in a waterbath at 100° C.
- the basic medium is dispensed into flasks, the number of which corresponds to the total number of media to be tested during the process.
- the flasks are then autoclaved for 15 min at 121° C.
- the media are brought back to and kept molten at 55 ⁇ 3° C. in a waterbath, in order to sterilely add the thermolabile additives (sterilized beforehand by filtration through 0.22 ⁇ m).
- the media are then poured into plates 90 mm in diameter and left on a flat surface so that they can set.
- the surface of the agars is then dried under a laminar flow hood for 30 min.
- This step is carried out as described in example 1.
- This step is carried out as described in example 1.
- the resistant E. faecalis and E. faecium strains form green colonies, whereas those of E. casseliflavus and of E. gallinarum form blue-to-violet colonies.
- This medium therefore makes it possible to differentiate these two groups of enterococci and to provide a suitable therapeutic response.
- This fourth example is based on the phenotypic detection of glycopeptide-resistant enterococci, with specific distinction of Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium, using the reduction of susceptibility to antibiotics and the demonstration of two enzymatic activities: ⁇ -glucosidase and ⁇ -galactosidase or ⁇ -glucosidase.
- the media used were a Columbia medium (51026), also comprising:
- Osmosed water is added and the whole is homogenized and melted in a waterbath at 100° C.
- the two basic media are dispensed into flasks.
- the flasks are then autoclaved for 15 min at 121° C.
- the media are brought back to and kept molten at 55 ⁇ 3° C. in a waterbath, in order to sterilely add the thermolabile additives (sterilized beforehand by filtration through 0.22 ⁇ m).
- the media are then poured into plates 90 mm in diameter and left on a flat surface so that they can set.
- the surface of the agars is then dried under a laminar flow hood for 30 min.
- This step is carried out as described in example 1.
- This step is carried out as described in example 1.
- the resistant E. faecium strains form violet colonies, whereas the resistant E. faecalis strains form pink colonies.
- the E. casseliflavus and E. gallinarum strains are inhibited due to the concentration of vancomycin.
- This medium therefore makes it possible to differentiate these two groups of enterococci and to provide a suitable therapeutic response and also a follow-up of the local epidemiology.
- the resistant E. faecium strains form violet colonies, whereas the resistant E. faecalis strains form green colonies.
- the E. casseliflavus and E. gallinarum strains are inhibited due to the concentration of vancomycin.
- This medium therefore makes it possible to differentiate these two groups of enterococci and to provide a suitable therapeutic response and a follow-up of the local epidemiology.
