Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Among members of the family Enterobacteriaceae, the production of plasmid-mediated extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESbetaLs) has emerged as an important mechanism of the resistance to beta-lactams. METHODS: The molecular basis of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase in 48 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae, recovered from neonatal patients with nosocomial septicemia during an outbreak that occurred in...
