Global transmission of extended-spectrum cephalosporin resistance in Escherichia coli driven by epidemic plasmidsResearch in context

Summary: Background: Extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs) are third and fourth generation cephalosporin antimicrobials used in humans and animals to treat infections due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Resistance to ESCs (ESC-R) in Enterobacterales is predominantly due to the production o...
