Sir,
Extended-spectrum ß-lactamases (ESBLs) are uncommon in Salmonella enterica strains as compared with other enterobacterial species, such as Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. However, eight different CTX-M ß-lactamases (CTX-M-2 to -7, CTX-M-9 and CTX-M-15) have been reported in S. enterica in South America, Europe and Lebanon.14 We report here
