چکیده

A single Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium isolate with an UT2 phage type producing an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) was identified in Canada in 2000. The isolate harbored two plasmids, one containing a bla(TEM-1) gene and the other containing a bla(SHV-2a) gene. The ESBL gene was located on a 70-kb transferable plasmid which also carried tetracycline and trimethoprim resistance elements.

Two different extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in one of the first ESBL-producing salmonella isolates in Poland.

Two extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing salmonella isolates, Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, were analyzed. Both isolates produced the CTX-M-3 ESBL; however, their bla(CTX-M-3) genes were located on different plasmids. The serovar Typhimurium isolate also expressed another ESBL, SHV-2a, and probably the two ESBL genes had been a...

Objective(s) Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria have an important role in nosocomial infections. Due to the limited availability of information about the molecular epidemiology of ESBL producing bacteria in Mashhad, we decided to investigate about TEM, CTX and SHV ESBLs among urinary Escherichia coli isolates in Mashhad, a city in northeast Iran.
