Spread of NDM-5 and OXA-181 carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli in Chad

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, Volume 63, No. 11, Article e00646-19, Year 2019

We detected for the first time blaNDM-5 and blaOXA-181 in Escherichia coli isolates from hospitalized patients and healthy volunteers in Chad. These resistance genes were located on IncX3 and IncF plasmids. Despite the large diversity of E. coli clones, the identified resistant intestinal isolates belonged mainly to the same sequence type.
