Whole-Genome Sequencing of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli From Human Infections in Finland Revealed Isolates Belonging to Internationally Successful ST131-C1-M27 Subclade but Distinct From Non-human Sources [PDF]

, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern in public health, particularly for the clinically relevant extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC-producing Enterobacteriaceae.

Multilocus sequence typing of Escherichia coli isolates from urinary tract infection patients and from fecal samples of healthy subjects in a college community

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 1225-1233, June 2020., 2020
We address an unresolved question regarding the source of Escherichia coli that causes community‐acquired urinary tract infection (CA‐UTI)—whether E. coli strains that cause UTI represent members of the intestinal commensal E. coli or a distinct subgroup of pathogenic E. coli. Our results based on multilocus sequence type (MLST) analysis of E.

Prevalence and Molecular Characterization of Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Escherichia coli in Healthy Children

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Faecal E. coli can act as reservoirs for resistance genes. Here, we analyzed prevalence of drug resistance in faecal E. coli isolated from healthy children at a single kindergarten in Beijing, China, then used whole genome sequencing to characterize ...

Prevalence, risk factors, outcomes, and molecular epidemiology of mcr-1 -positive Enterobacteriaceae in patients and healthy adults from China: an epidemiological and clinical study [PDF]

, 2017
Background The mcr-1 gene confers transferable colistin resistance. mcr-1-positive Enterobacteriaceae (MCRPE) have attracted substantial medical, media, and political attention; however, so far studies have not addressed their clinical impact. Herein, we

OXA-1 β-lactamase and non-susceptibility to penicillin/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations among ESBL-producing Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2018
Background ESBL-producing Escherichia coli have expanded globally since the turn of the century and present a major public health issue. Their in vitro susceptibility to penicillin/inhibitor combinations is variable, and clinical use of these ...
