Abstract:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health threat caused by antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), such as blaCTX-M. The blaCTX-M is one of the most common ARGs that confers cephalosporin resistance. This study aimed to investigate the concentrations of cefotaxime-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) and the presence of the blaCTX-M in E. coli isolated from downstream of the Bekasi River. The results of this study provided some information on AMR in reservoir environmental bacteria. This study used … Show more
