Carbapenem-Sparing Strategies for ESBL Producers: When and How

Antibiotics, 2020
Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria are prevalent worldwide and correlated with hospital infections, but they have been evolving as an increasing cause of community acquired infections.

A Review of Extended Spectrum β-Lactamases: Definition and Types [PDF]

Kirkuk Journal of Science, 2023
Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are defined as those bacterial enzymes which are capable to hydrolyze most beta-lactam antibiotics, including penicillins, cephalosporins, and the monobactam aztreonam and especially expanded spectrum cephalosporins

Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases Producing Enterobacteriaceae in the USA Dairy Cattle Farms and Implications for Public Health

Antibiotics, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the top global health threats of the 21th century. Recent studies are increasingly reporting the rise in extended-spectrum beta-lactamases producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBLs-Ent) in dairy cattle and humans in the

Characterization of qnrB-carrying plasmids from ESBL- and non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli

BMC Genomics, 2022
Abstract Background Escherichia coli carrying clinically important antimicrobial resistances [i.e., against extended-spectrum-beta-lactamases (ESBL)] are of high concern for human health and are increasingly detected worldwide.

Evolution and epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and ESBL-producing microorganisms [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2001
The rapid and irrepressible increase in antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic bacteria that has been observed over the last two decades is widely accepted to be one of the major problems of human medicine today. Several aspects of this situation are especially worrying.
