“…Extended-spectrum β-lactamases are classified to Ambler class A (functional group 2be) are serine β-lactamases. This class contains TEM, SHV and CTX-M families are now among the most clinically important b-lactamases, and in addition, they were able to hydrolyze not just penicillins, but additionally broad-spectrum monobactams and cephalosporins (Singh et al, 2022). Currently, the CTX-M family of class A b-lactamases is the most common set of ESBL enzymes worldwide, with the ability to efficiently hydrolyze extended-spectrum cephalosporins such as cefotaxime (Castanheira et al, 2021).…”

The current study was conducted to determine the prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) in 78 drug-resistant clinical isolates (25 Klebsiella pneumoniae and 53 Escherichia coli strains) using phenotypic and molecular methods. The phenotypic method was performed using a double-disk synergy test (DDST), while the genotypic method screened for the blaSHV, blaCTX-M13U, and blaOXA-10 genes using specific primers. The phenotypic results showed that out of 53 tested strains of E. coli, 17 (32.07%) produced ESBL. Similarly, out of 25 tested strains of K. pneumoniae, 8 (32%) produced ESBL. Genotypic detection showed that in E. coli, the most abundant gene was SHV, present in 24 strains (45.28%), followed by blaOXA-10 in 23 strains (43.39%) and CTX-M-3 in 8 strains (15.09%). In K. pneumoniae, SHV was detected in 12 strains (48%), followed by OXA-10 and CTX-M-3, each found in 5 strains (20%).
