Background Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) are a
serious threat among emerging antibiotic resistant bacteria. Particularly, the number of …

In 271 Enterobacter blood culture isolates from 12 hospitals, extended-spectrum beta-
lactamase (ESBL) prevalence varied between 0% and 30% per hospital. High prevalence …

Community-acquired infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-
producing bacteria, particularly CTX-M-producing Escherichia coli, are a rising concern …

Because asymptomatic carriage of extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase (ESBL) producers is
a risk factor for infection, data on colonization dynamics are important when planning …

Escherichia coli strains producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are a major
problem in many different hospitals worldwide, causing outbreaks as well as sporadic …

Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of the extended-spectrum β-
lactamase (ESBL)-producing enterobacteria (ESBLE) in the French community, during a …

Aim: Community-acquired infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-
producing bacteria are an emerging problem. Digestive tract colonization is a prerequisite …

Background. Extended‐spectrum β‐lactamases (ESβLs) and AmpC β‐lactamases cause β‐
lactam resistance in Escherichia coli. Fecal colonization by ESβL‐and/or AmpC‐positive E …

Aims: We compared the prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)
producers in the faecal samples of 1,109 healthy individuals screened for employment …

The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae in
a tertiary hospital in Taiwan was assessed over a 16-month period. A total of 125 …
