Comparison of resistance data from commensal and ESBL/AmpC producing E. coli isolated from the same samples

In food and food-producing animals monitoring of antimicrobial resistant bacteria is mostly conducted on commensal E. coli. From 2015 on in the EU also the selective isolation and subsequent resistance testing on ESBL/AmpC-producing E. coli is mandatory (2013/652/EU).
