• Antibiotic resistance and extended spectrum beta-lactamases: Types, epidemiology and treatment. (2015, background): “Isolates with the CTX-M-9 group are common in Spain and strains with the CTX-M-3 enzymes have been described chiefly in Eastern Europe, although clones producing the CTX-M group 1 (including the CTX-M-15 type) are the most widespread throughout Europe (Coque et al., 2008a,b; Canton et al., 2008).”
• Multiresistant Gram-negative bacteria: the role of high-risk clones in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance. (2011, background): “…is a ‘virulent’ phylogroup B2, uropathogenic E. coli lineage, which can be recognized by allele-specific PCR of the pabB gene (Clermont et al., 2009; Dhanji et al., 2010), and may be subdivided into multiple variants by PFGE (Coque et al., 2008; Lau et al., 2008a; Nicolas-Chanoine et al., 2008).”
