conclusions our study showed that the prevalence of esbl-producing k. pneumoniae at king khalid hospital was significantly high. routine detection of esbl-producing microorganisms is required by each of the laboratory standard detection methods to control the spread of these infections and allow a proper therapeutic strategy. for detection, the phenotypic confirmatory disc diffusion test is sim...

Objective(s) The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of PER-1-type ESBLs in drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Materials and Methods During one-year period (2008-2009), following isolation and identification of 56 P. aeruginosa, the E-test method was performed for determination of minimal inhibitory concentration of ceftazidim. The isolates that they had MIC≥16 µg/ml ...

  Background: and Objectives: Salmonella infections are endemic in many developing countries with poor sanitary conditions, but emerge sporadically as a serious public health threat in developed countries. Infections with multidrug resistant (MDR) strains of Salmonella have been associated with treatment failures. Salmonella spp. resistant to extended spectrum cephal...

conclusions beside our study, the detection of mbl genes were reported in a few studies conducted in iran. the spread of detected mbls producing p. aeruginosa were unprecedented in the region due to the lack of independent related researches or the novel incidence of these genes. this detection must be noted by associated clinical and health care services. results from 240 p. aeruginosa isolate...

 Escherichia coli bacteria that are resistant to β-lactam antibiotics and may be able produce Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBLs) have been found in the reproductive tract of Bali cattle. ESBL will cause antimicrobial resistance (AMR) which has become a global health problem. The purpose this study was detect phenotypically presence produces from This research conducted February 2022 La...
