Background: Resistance to broad-spectrum β lactams, mediated by extended-spectrum β
lactamases (ESBLs), is an increasing problem world wide. This resistance poses problems …

Objective: To compare double disc approximation and combined disc method for their ability
to detect extended spectrum b lactamase (ESBL) production in enterobacteriaceae and …

Extended spectrum β lactamases (ESBLs) continue to be a major problem in clinical setups
world over, conferring resistance to the expanded spectrum cephalosporins. An attempt was …

Correspondence amoxy-clavulanate disk was placed in the centre and disks containing
extended spectrum cephalosporins were placed 20 mm distance (centre to centre) from an …

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of extended spectrum of beta
lactamases (ESBLs), to compare different phenotypic methods for ESBL confirmation and to …

Resistance to broad spectrum β lactams, mediated by extended spectrum beta lactamase
(ESβL) and AmpC βL enzymes is an increasing problem worldwide. Presence of these in …

Objective: To determine the frequency of extended-spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL)
producing Enterobacteriaceae in urinary isolates. Study Design: Observational study. Place …

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) are a large, rapidly evolving group of
enzymes that confer resistance to oxyimino cephalosporins and monobactams and are …

Background Infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing
bacteria become an emerging problem in the community setting in many parts of the world …

Amp C beta lactamases confer resistance to a wide variety of beta lactams and pose both
diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, as their presence goes undetected in the presence …
