Prevalence of Some Group A Beta-Lactamase Genes among Uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from Women with Cystitis.

Urinary tract infection is a common infection associated with considerable societal cost and even increasing antibiotic resistance, which to some extent represents a challenging issue facing infection control. In this work, some group A Beta-lactamase genes blaTEM, bla SHV, bla CTX-M-1, bla CTX-M-2, bla CTX-M-9, bla CTX-M-25 among Uropathogenic Escherichia coli from women with cystitis have been detected. The results showed that 100 isolates of 611 urine samples belonged to Escherichia coli.
