Περίληψη:
Twelve Salmonella typhimurium strains resistant to broad-spectrum
cephalosporins were isolated from cases of gastroenteritis during 1996
to 1998 in Russia, Hungary, and Greece. Resistance was due to the
production of CTX-M-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamases encoded by
similar 12-kb plasmids. By pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, all strains
shared the same chromosomal type. These data suggest that an S.
typhimurium clone resistant to broad-spectrum cephalosporins is present
in at least three European countries.
