Prevalence of SHV-12 among Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae Producing Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases and Identification of a Novel AmpC Enzyme (CMY-8) in Southern Taiwan

Twenty (8.5%) of 234 nonrepetitive clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae from southern Taiwan were found to produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs): 10 strains produced SHV-12, 4 produced SHV-5, 2 produced a non-TEM non-SHV ESBL with a pI of 8.3, 3 produced a novel AmpC β-lactamase desig...
