Resistance of undisturbed soil microbiomes to ceftriaxone indicates extended spectrum β-lactamase activity

Emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance, and specifically resistance to third generation cephalosporins associated with extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) activity, is one of the greatest epidemiological challenges of our time. In this study we addressed the impact of the third generation ce...
