The Frequency and Antimicrobial Resistance of blaTEM and blaCTX-M Genes in Escherichia coli Isolated From Patients With a Urinary Tract Infection

The Frequency and Antimicrobial Resistance of blaTEM and blaCTX-M Genes in Escherichia coli Isolated From Patients With a Urinary Tract Infection

Introduction: The production of β-lactamase in bacteria, especially in Escherichia coli as a prevalent opportunistic bacterium, has caused many problems in patient treatment. β-lactamases are encoded by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes such as blaTEM and blaCTX-M. We aimed to assess the pr...
