Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi Producing CTX-M-15 Extended Spectrum ?-Lactamase in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.


ABSTRACT: We report a typhoid fever case with a Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi isolate showing extended spectrum ?-lactamase (ESBL) production in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Whole genome sequencing revealed that the strain carried a plasmid-mediated CTX-M-15 ESBL gene and did not belong to the dominant H58 Salmonella Typhi clade.
