Correlation of RAPD-PCR Profiles with ESBL Production in Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae in Tehran
Background: Multidrug resistant K. pneumoniae, particularly the extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing strains, are often responsible for the failure of antibiotic treatment in nosocomial infections. Employing molecular methods to distinguish between ESBL and non-ESBL producing isolates...
