BACKGROUND No detailed reports regarding extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are currently available from Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world. METHODS A survey was carried out to investigate the molecular epidemiology and genetic characteristics of clinical ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates originating from the Dr. Soetomo Academic Hospital in Surabaya, Indonesia, over a 4 month period (January to April 2005). ESBLs were characterized by isoelectric focusing and PCR assays. Clonality of the isolates was assessed by PFGE and repetitive-sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR). Phylogenetic grouping was performed among CTX-M-15-producing E. coli. RESULTS In total, 73 consecutive non-duplicate ESBL-positive E. coli and 72 K. pneumoniae strains were isolated. The bla(CTX-M-15) gene was found to be highly prevalent (69/73 strains, 94.5%) among the 73 ESBL-positive E. coli isolates. The gene was detected in both clonal and non-clonal isolates, as defined by PFGE and rep-PCR. Sixteen CTX-M-15-positive E. coli could be assigned to a single rep-PCR type and phylogenetic group B2 and belonged to the well-known O25b-ST131 clone. Among the 72 ESBL-positive K. pneumoniae isolates, bla(CTX-M-15) was again the most prevalent ESBL (40/72, 55.6%). Several SHV-type enzymes were also frequently detected: SHV-5 (n = 28); SHV-12 (n = 13); and SHV-2 (n = 6). TEM-type ESBLs were not detected in any of the isolates. CONCLUSIONS Indonesia is another developing country affected by the emergence and spread of bacterial strains harbouring ESBL genes, including the CTX-M-15-producing B2-E. coli O25b-ST131 clone.

D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
