The aim of the present work was to study the prevalence of Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and Metallo-β-lactamases (MβLs) among 464 E. coli clinical isolates obtained from various clinical specimens; and to study the susceptibility of various drugs against E. coli isolates. Phenotypic characterization and susceptibility studies were performed according to the methods described in Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines (CLSI, 2010). The prevalence of ESBLs and MβLs was analyzed with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), using the previously reported primers.
