متن کاملE-test antibiotic susceptibility of E.coli strains isolated from hospital acquired infections of Imam Khomeini hospital, Ilam, Iran
Introduction: Escherichia coli (E.coli) as a main cause of both nosocomial and community-acquired infections in humans have a relative potential to develop resistance. Nowadays, most infections caused by ESBL-producing E.coli (ESBLEC) had mostly been described as nosocomial acquired or nursing home related. In this study, we employed E-test assay to detect antibiotic resistance of E.coli ...
