Bacterial resistance to β-lactams is mainly attributed to CTX-M-type extended-spectrum β-
lactamases (ESBLs). However, the predominant sequence type (ST) of bla CTX-M-carrying …

Purpose Here, we investigated the genetic relationships and characteristics of extended-
spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-E. coli) isolates from healthy …

The goal of this study was to compare the molecular features of bovine-and human
community-acquired extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli in …

Food-producing animals are recognized to play a role in the epidemiology of antimicrobial
resistance in Canada. However, the presence of resistant organisms in particular groups of …

Objectives Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) are a
serious public health concern worldwide. The aim of this study was to characterise ESBL-EC …

Thirty of 33 epidemiologically unrelated extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing
Escherichia coli isolates from healthy poultry lacked the virulence genes commonly …

The epidemiology and genetic characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-
producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) have been widely studied in human and veterinary …

Antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli isolates have emerged in various ecologic
compartments and evolved to spread globally. We sought to (1.) investigate the occurrence …

Multidrug resistance due to the production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs)
is a major problem in human as well as in veterinary medicine. These strains appear in …

Antimicrobial-resistant bacteria isolated from food animals pose a major health threat to the
public on this planet. This study aimed to determine the susceptibility profiles of Escherichia …
