Frequency of E. coli clinical isolates producing blaSHV and blaTEM extended-spectrum beta-lactamases
Introduction: Production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase enzymes (ESBLs) in E. coli creates many problems for patients. These enzymes are located on transferable elements and can hydrolyze penicillins, broad-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam. This study aimed to determine the clinical isolates of E. coli producing ESBLs of blaSHV and blaTEM in the city of Zanjan. Methods: This cross...
متن کاملdetection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) in escherichia coli
background escherichia coli (e. coli) species are able to produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) that cause high resistance to the beta-lactam antibiotics. therefore, determining the antibiotic susceptibility patterns in resistant organisms is necessary for suitable therapeutic approaches. patients and methods totally, 260 clinical isolates of e. coli were collected from hospitals in te...
متن کاملThe detection of Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) producing Escherichia coli isolated from clinical samples
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a stern public health problem and are caused by a wide range of pathogens, but most frequently by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus saprophyticus. High frequency rates and increasing antimicrobial resistance among uropathogens threaten to greatly raise the economic load of these infections. Fe...
متن کاملPrevalence and molecular characterization of Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) producing Escherichia Coli and Klebsiella Pneumoniae.
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae as well as genes encoding ESBLs. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 1207 non-repeat isolates of E. coli and K. pneumoniae were obtained from urine, tracheal aspirate, wound swab and blood from patients hospitalized at the University Clinics in Skopje. ESBL set and E-test ...
متن کاملPhenotypic and genotypic studies of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) resistance among Salmonella isolates from poultry sources in Iran
BACKGROUND: Poultry and poultry products are among the major sources of Salmonella infections for humans. Increasing occurrence of antimicrobial resistance among Salmonellae has become a serious public health concern. The detection of extended spectrum b-lactamase (ESBL) producers among Salmonella spp. has increased in recent years. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the a...
