High prevalence of carbapenemase, AmpC β-lactamase and aminoglycoside resistance genes in extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive uropathogens from Northern India

High prevalence of carbapenemase, AmpC β-lactamase and aminoglycoside resistance genes in extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive uropathogens from Northern India

Objectives: This study investigated the occurrence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes coexisting with carbapenemase, AmpC and aminoglycoside resistance gene in uropathogens in India. Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disk diffusion. Antimicrobial resistance ge...
