Both ESBL and AmpC-positive isolates were then screened for the presence of genes encoding plasmid-mediated AmpC \u03b2-lactamases by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).<\/jats:p>\n                <\/jats:sec>\n                <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the <jats:italic>K. pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> tested, 75% and 16% were resistant to gentamicin, 74% and 1.3% to imipenem, 71% and 12% to cefoxitin, 80% and 12% to cefepime, 69% and 22.6% to ciprofloxacin, respectively. None of the <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> isolates were multidrug resistant compared with <jats:italic>K. pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> (65.8%). <jats:italic>K. pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> ESBL producers were significantly higher (85.5%) compared with (17.3%) <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> isolates (P &lt;0.0001, OR=4.93). Plasmid-mediated AmpC genes were detected in 7.9% of <jats:italic>K. pneumoniae<\/jats:italic>, and 4% <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> isolates. There was low agreement between phenotypic and genotypic methods, phenotypic testing underestimated detection of AmpC enzyme and did not correlate well with molecular results. The gene encoding CMY enzyme was the most prevalent (66.6%) of AmpC positive isolates followed by MOX, DHA and EBC. Only one AmpC gene was detected in 5\/9 isolates, i.e, <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>CMY<\/jats:sub> (n=3), <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic>\n                        <jats:sub>MOX<\/jats:sub> (n=1), <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>DHA<\/jats:sub> (n=1). However, co-occurrence of AmpC genes were evident in 3\/9 isolates with the following distribution:\n                        <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic>\n                        <jats:sub>CMY<\/jats:sub> and <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>EBC<\/jats:sub> (n=1), and <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>CMY<\/jats:sub> and <jats:italic>bla<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>MOX<\/jats:sub> (n=2).
