Multiplex PCR results for TEM, SMV, CTX-M-1, CTX-M-2, CTX-M-8, and CTX-M-9 are presented. a) Klebsiella pneumoniae: All strains carried CTX-M-9, excluding one control strain (K10) that carried SMV. b) Escherichia coli: Excluding E1, E2, E5, E6, and E7, all strains carried different types of ESBL genes. The strain identifier numbers presented in the table were not linked to patient’s privacy and cannot compromise patient anonymity
