Background Faecal carriage of ESBL-producing bacteria is a potential risk for transmission
and infection. Little is known about faecal carriage of antibiotic resistance in Tanzania. This …

Background Data on ESBL carriage of healthy people including children are scarce
especially in developing countries. We analyzed the prevalence and genotypes of ESBL …

Background In recent years, the world has seen a surge in extended-spectrum β-lactamase

Introduction: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE)
infections are a growing threat to children, and the treatment of these infections becomes …

Background Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria present an ever-
growing burden in the hospital and community settings. Data on the prevalence of ESBL …

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-
producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) in faeces of healthy children aged 0–59 months in …

Objectives Intestinal carriage constitutes an important reservoir of antimicrobial-resistant
bacteria, with some of the highest rates reported from Asia. Antibiotic resistance has been …

Objectives Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) are
