Abstract

The prevalence of ESBL among four study centres varied, and bla<sub>TEM,</sub> bla<sub>OXA-1</sub> and bla<sub>CTXM-15</sub> were the most common genotypes in E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates in India. The growing carbapenem resistance and emerging colistin resistance warrant the judicious use of these antimicrobials.
