Objectives: To identify and characterize the aetiology of an outbreak of extra-intestinal multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli infections in elderly patients in Israel.

Methods: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing clinical isolates of E. coli from extra-intestinal sources were tested for susceptibility to non-beta-lactam drugs, and their serotypes were determined.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Mette Barendorff Kerrn"

  • - Mette Barendorff Kerrn's research primarily focuses on the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, specifically investigating integron-mediated ESBL (Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase) resistance in Escherichia coli.
  • - In her 2005 study, she characterized an outbreak of multidrug-resistant E. coli infections in the elderly population in Israel, exploring the aetiology and resistance patterns of the clinical isolates.
  • - The research involved assessing susceptibility to non-beta-lactam antibiotics and identifying the serotypes of the resistant E. coli strains, contributing to a better understanding of antibiotic resistance in infectious disease management.
