Zusammenfassung:This study aimed to investigate antimicrobial resistance and molecular epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing ( ) isolated from outpatients in town hospitals of Shandong province, China. Antimicrobial susceptibility of ESBL-producing was tested using the disk diffusion and resistance genes encoding for β-lactamases ( , , and ) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Multilocus sequence typing (ST) of ESBL-producing was analyzed in this study. Our results showed that of 320 isolates, 201 carried ESBL genes (201/320, 62.8%), and these isolates all carried genes, the most common being (116/201, 57.7%), followed by (47/201, 23.4%) and (31/201, 15.4%). ESBL-producing exhibited highly resistant to penicillin derivatives, fluoroquinolones, folate pathway inhibitors, and third-generation cephalosporins, but no carbapenem-resistant isolates were found in this study. Forty-two STs were found among the 201 ESBL-producing , and the most common ST was ST131 (27/201, 13.4%), followed by ST405 (19/201, 9.5%) and ST69 (15/201, 7.5%). Taken together, a high isolation rate of ESBL-producing (62.8%) was found among outpatients in town hospitals. gene was most dominant and was composed of a variety of subtypes. No dominant ST was detected among ESBL-producing , indicating that these ESBL-producing isolates derive from different clones.
