‘’RAPID DETECTION OF ESBL PRODUCES ISOLATES OF GRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN ENT INFECTION AT A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL KANPUR.’

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: -The spread of ESBL in Gram- negative bacteria represents a major therapeutic challenge 
either in hospital or in a community setting. Extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) are typically plasmid – mediated enzymes that confers resistance to extended-spectrum beta lactarium antibioticssuch as ceftazidime, cefotaxime, or Aztreonam. ESBLs enzymes produced both Gram positive and gram- negative bacteria but occur 
predominantly in the family o
