[QacEdelta1 gene frequency and biocide resistance in extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates].

Abstract

The qacEdelta1 gene of antiseptic resistance is widespread in the EP-ESBL and can be transferred horizontally. Thus it is advisable to use combinations of antiseptics, as recommended in the literature, to avoid selection of multiresistant bacteria in hospitals, causing nosocomial infections.
