Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Phenotypic and genotypic methods for the detection of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) were compared and evaluated. METHODS: WGS data from 155 isolates of EAEC isolated between June 2015 and December 2016 were mapped to genes known to be associated with phenotypic AMR. RESULTS: Phenotypic and genotypic testing of 155 isolates against 10 antimicrobial classes...
