Molecular Epidemiology of Antimicrobial Resistance of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolates from Patients with Urinary Tract Infections in a Tertiary Teaching Hospital in Iran

Abstract excerpt

To characterize the resistance patterns of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in a Tertiary Teaching Hospital in Iran, we conducted a descriptive epidemiology study using molecular techniques. The subjects consisted of patients having acute urinary tract infection, who were enrolled in the study from 2014 to 2017. The antimicrobial susceptibility profile of 101 UPEC isolates was determined by Kirby-Bauer disc...
