The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase and the analysis of antibiotic susceptibility in clinical escherichia coli isolates / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective Try to know the prevalence rate of ESBL-s produced by Eseherichia coil in our hospital from 2003 to 2007.Methods Antibiotic susceptibility were determined by K-B disc diffusion.Double-disk synergy tests performed on Mueller-Hinton agar plates was used for ESBL confirmation.Results There was 23.8% of our isolates can produce ESBLs in 2003,25.4% in 2004,31.3% in 2005,36.6% in 2006 and 44.9% in 2007,respectively.The situation of antibiotic resistance is more severe.Conclusion The antibiotic resistance should be well surveyed and the ESBLs must be routinely assayed.
