Background: Multidrug resistant bacteria continue to be a bane in the treatment of clinical infections in Nigeria. Knowledge of trends in resistance mechanisms is vital in determining available therapeutic options. Objective: This study was aimed at determining the prevalence, distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), AmpC β-lactamase and metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing gram negative bacteria (GNB) recovered from clinical specimens in a tertiary hospital in Southern Nigeria. Materials and Methods: A total of 309 consecutive non-repetitive clinical bacterial isolates were recovered from various clinical specimens. The presence of ESBL, AmpC β-lactamase and MBL as well as the suscep...
