Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Resistant Determinants among Carbapenem-Resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> from Beef Cattle in the North West Province, South Africa: A Critical Assessment of Their Possible Public Health Implications

Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Resistant Determinants among Carbapenem-Resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> from Beef Cattle in the North West Province, South Africa: A Critical Assessment of Their Possible Public Health Implications

Carbapenems are considered to be the last resort antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing strains. The purpose of this study was to assess antimicrobial resistance profile of Carbapenem-resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> (CR...
