Abstract excerpt

Recently, the emergence and rapid dissemination of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria, particularly of the family Enterobacteriaceae, has posed serious healthcare challenges. Here, we determined the antimicrobial susceptibility and genetic characteristics of 164 Escherichia coli strains isolated from infected patients in two hospitals in Ghana. In total, 102 cefotaxime-resistant isolates...
