  1. Molecular detection, quantification and characterization of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)- and AmpC-encoding genes in a cucumber agroecosystem

    … antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) (including extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae) in fresh produce, is therefore imperative owing to the global push towards healthier diets with a focus on raw food due to its high nutritious value. In this context, bacteria that …

  4. ENABLING RAPID PHENOTYPIC DETECTION OF CEPHALOSPORIN RESISTANCE BEYOND THE CENTRAL LABORATORY

    … resistance activity in bacteria expressing extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) enzymes, one of the most prolific resistance strategies used by superbugs. Next, we describe methods of integrating these detection molecules into practical testing methods, and detail the engineering of simpler …

    … Among the most resistant bacteria of concern, extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales are particularly relevant because they limit the efficacy of critically important β-lactam antimicrobials and can disseminate across the animal–human–environment interface. In dairy …
