Abstract :
Extended‑spectrum β‑lactamases (ESBLs) and
AmpC β‑lactamases (AmpC) are responsible for
β‑lactam antibiotic resistance among Escherichia coli.[1]
Metallo‑β‑lactamases (MBLs) hydrolyze virtually all
drugs in the class of carbapenems. This study was aimed
to detect the ESBLs, MBLs, and AmpC production
among Gram‑negative bacteria from HIV patients.
