Molecular epidemiology of multiresistant Escherichia coli isolates from community-onset urinary tract infections in Cornwall, England.
OBJECTIVES To study the clonality of gentamicin-resistant, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-negative and ESBL-producing Escherichia coli isolated from community-onset urinary tract infections (UTIs) in Cornwall. METHODS Isolates were identified by API, susceptibilities were determined by local disc testing, and MICs were determined at the reference laboratory, both interpreted using BS...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of Shiga toxin- producing Escherichia coli in India
Shiga toxin or verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC or VTEC) is recognized as an important foodborne pathogen, responsible for sporadic cases to serious outbreaks worldwide. The morbidity and mortality associated with several recent outbreaks due to STEC have highlighted the threat this organism poses to public health. Since its discovery in 1982, the organism has been the focus of ex...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of Escherichia coli mediated urinary tract infections.
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most frequently acquired bacterial infections and Escherichia coli accounts for as many as 90% of all UTIs seen among ambulatory populations. Risk factors for UTIs include host behaviors, host characteristics and bacterial characteristics. Sexual activity and contraceptive method are the strongest determinant of a symptomatic UTI episode. The characte...
متن کاملMolecular Epidemiology of ESBL Genes and Multi-Drug Resistance in Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains Isolated from Adults in Iran
Resistance to oxyimino cephalosporins antibiotics in Enterobacteriaceae is primarily done by the extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Clear identification of risk factors for ESBL-producing infections is necessary. Therefore, efficient strategies can be developed to decrease outbreak of these infections. The aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial susceptibility and ESBLs patter...
