| Summary: | E. coli bacterial infections are frequently present with multiple factors that make their treatment more expensive, in the health field at the national level. The objective of this work is to determine the influence of the beta-lactamase enzyme on E. coliresistance against antibiotics, recognizing the antibacterialsfrom the families of penicillins and cephalosporins inefficient in their treatment. Based on a documentary study of scientific articles on the subject under study, it is conclude that the presence of the enzyme beta-lactamase greatly influences the resistance developed by the bacterium E. coli towards antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins first, second, third and fourth generation. In addition, it was determined that the antibiotics derived from penicillin, such as ampicillin and antibiotics of the cephalosporin family cefazolin, cephalothin, cefotaxime, cefepime and cefoptaxime by hydrolysis of these drugs, do not exert any antibacterial effect of resistant E. coli, representing a big problem that may increase the risk of patient mortality. It is recommended that, in case of suspected E. coli infection, an antibiogram be performed to detect the indicated treatment. |
