Whole-Genome Sequencing-Based Characteristics in Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> Isolated from Retail Meats in Korea

Whole-Genome Sequencing-Based Characteristics in Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> Isolated from Retail Meats in Korea

The spread of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> (ESBL-EC) has posed a critical health risk to both humans and animals, because resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics makes treatment for commonly infectious diseases more complicated. In this study, we repor...
