Prevalence of antibiotic resistance among Escherichia coli isolates. CTX-resistant clinical (n = 11, black) and wastewater (WW) isolates were analyzed for antibiotic susceptibility using disk diffusion. Isolates from wastewater populations included hospital (n = 22, gray), wastewater influent (n = 19, pink), and treated effluent (n = 17, blue). Prevalence was determined dividing resistant isolates by the total number of isolates in each source multiplied by a hundred. CRO: ceftriaxone; CTX: cefotaxime; CAZ: ceftazidime; MEM: meropenem; IMP: impenem; ERT: ertapenem; CHL: chloramphenicol; CIP: ciprofloxacin; GEN: gentamicin; SXT: sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim; TET: tetracycline; MDR: multi-drug resistant.
