Co-infection With Chromosomally-Located blaCTX-M-14 and Plasmid-Encoding blaCTX-M-15 in Pathogenic Escherichia coli in the Republic of Korea

Co-infection With Chromosomally-Located blaCTX-M-14 and Plasmid-Encoding blaCTX-M-15 in Pathogenic Escherichia coli in the Republic of Korea

The emergence of third-generation cephalosporin resistance in Escherichia coli is increasing at an alarming rate in many countries. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze co-infecting blaCTX-M-producing pathogenic E. coli isolates linked to three school outbreaks. Among 66 E. coli isolates, 44 w...
