“…Escherichia coli is one of the most frequent causes of many bacterial infections, including Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) [1], blood stream infections [2], otitis media [3], pneumonia [4], meningitis [5], traveler's diarrhea, and other infections [6]. Among the antibacterial agents, β-lactam antimicrobial agents are the most widely used to treat bacterial infections, accounting for over 50% of all antibiotics in use [7].…”

Klebsiella known as the second microorganism frequently found to be responsible in cIAI 17,20,28 and somehow, together with Escherichia coli found to be related to community acquired intraabdominal infections.29…”

[5][6][7] The systemic infections include bacteremia, nosocomial pneumonia, cholecystitis and infectious arthritis. Escherichia coli is also a leading cause of neonatal meningitis.…”
