Abrupt emergence of a single dominant multidrug-resistant strain of Escherichia coli.
BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli are increasingly prevalent. Their clonal origins--potentially critical for control efforts--remain undefined. METHODS Antimicrobial resistance profiles and fine clonal structure were determined for 236 diverse-source historical (1967-2009) E. coli isolates representing sequence type ST131 and 853 recent (2010-2011) consecutive E. coli isol...
متن کامل"emergence of multidrug resistant strains of escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infections"
the emergence of multidrug resistant strains of escherichia coli has complicated treatment decision and may lead to treatment failures. from april to november 2001 we prospectively evaluated the prevalence of resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (sxt), gentamicin, cephalothin, ciprofloxacin, and nitrofurantoin in 220 escherichia coli isolates from patients with urinary tract infections i...

متن کاملPrevalence of Multidrug Resistant Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli in Cattle Meat and Its Contact Surfaces
Background: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are group of E. coli causing bloody diarrhea. The goal of this survey was to determine the prevalence of multidrug resistant shiga toxin-producing E. coli in cattle meat and its contact surfaces. Methods: Swab samples (n=120) were randomly collected from meat and contact surface of butchery shops in Sharkia province, Egypt. Prevalence o...
متن کاملGlobal dissemination of a multidrug resistant Escherichia coli clone.
Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) is a globally disseminated, multidrug resistant (MDR) clone responsible for a high proportion of urinary tract and bloodstream infections. The rapid emergence and successful spread of E. coli ST131 is strongly associated with several factors, including resistance to fluoroquinolones, high virulence gene content, the possession of the type 1 fimbriae Fi...
