Comparison of the microbiological characteristics and virulence factors of ST131 and non-ST131 clones among extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli causing bacteremia

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2016
We evaluated the molecular epidemiology and microbiological characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) isolates that cause bacteremia in Korean hospitals, focusing especially on ST131. Our data suggest that ST131 isolates possessed more virulence traits and showed more multidrug resistance patterns than non ...

Occurrence and spread of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) in the food chain in the EU/EFTA. Part 1: 2025 update

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) have been reported in the food chain in 14 out of 30 EU/EFTA countries. Commonly reported genes are blaVIM‐1, blaOXA‐48 and blaOXA‐181, followed by blaNDM‐5 and blaIMI‐1. Escherichia coli, target of most of the studies, Enterobacter cloacae complex, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex and Salmonella ...

Prevalence of E. coli ST131 among Uropathogenic E. coli Isolates from Iraqi Patients in Wasit Province, Iraq

International Journal of Microbiology, 2020
The emergence of Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (E. coli ST131) clone represents a major challenge to public health globally, since this clone is reported as highly virulent and multidrug-resistant, thus making it successfully disseminated worldwide.

Design of a 2D Melting Curve–Based Multiplex PCR Assay for Detection of SARS‐CoV‐2/RSV/Influenza A‐B

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background Recent advances in detecting respiratory pathogens have allowed for the simultaneous identification of multiple agents, enabling quick and accurate diagnosis to start timely treatment. This study aimed to design a novel two‐dimensional (2D) multiplex reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT‐qPCR) assay. This assay allows for the concurrent

Third‐Generation Cephalosporin‐Resistant Uropathogenic Escherichia coli From Community‐ and Hospital‐Acquired Infections Show High Level of Antibiotic Resistance and Specific Virulence Traits

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Escherichia coli is a leading cause of both community‐acquired and nosocomial infections. In particular, E. coli is responsible for 90% of all uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) and 65% of complicated UTIs. Among complicated UTIs, those caused by third‐generation cephalosporin (3GC)–resistant E.
