background: there is a growing concern on the impact of the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl) producing escherichia coli isolated from animals on public health. objectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the presence of three classes of esbl genes in e. coli isolates from sheep and broilers at a slaughter in urmia region, iran. methods: a total of 111 e. coli isolates w...

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...

objective(s) different types of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (esbls) are encountered in the clinical settings worldwide. there are a few studies regarding the prevalence of esbl genes among klebsiella pneumoniae isolates at tehran especially those of blaper and blactx. the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of blashv, blatem ,blaper and blactx genes among clinical k. pneumon...
