Abstract excerpt

Production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) has been reported in virtually all species of Enterobacteriaceae, which greatly complicates the therapy for infections caused by these organisms. However, the frequency of isolates producing AmpC beta-lactamases, especially plasmid-mediated AmpC (pAmpC), is largely unknown. These beta-lactamases confer resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and...
