High prevalence of blaCMY AmpC beta-lactamase in ESBL co-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. clinical isolates in the northeast of Iran
1 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The production of β-lactamase enzymes such as AmpC β-lactamases and extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) is among the main mechanisms for resistance to expanded-spectrum cephalosporins. The present study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and molecular epidemiology of plasmid-mediated AmpC beta (β)-lactamase in ESBL co-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella spp. (Klebsiella...
