Molecular characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamases in clinical isolates from Escherichia coli at a Japanese tertiary hospital.

Molecular characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamases in clinical isolates from Escherichia coli at a Japanese tertiary hospital.

The prevalence of ESBL has been increasing worldwide. In this study, we investigated the molecular characteristics of ESBL among clinical isolates of Escherichia coli from a Japanese tertiary hospital. A total of 71 consecutive and nonduplicate clinical isolates of ESBL-positive E. coli collected at...
