defined by susceptibility to all of ciprofloxacin, co-trimoxazole and gentamicin) isolates was low (2.9%, 5/175). PCR and sequencing showed that the only extended-spectrum b-lactamase (ESBL)-producing O25b-ST131 isolate had blaCTX-M-14. Our results showed that O25b-ST131 exhibited a wide range of susceptibility patterns. Similar to previous studies, our findings showed that O25b-ST131 isolates ...
