title: [On the susceptibility of AmpC-producing bacteria to third-generation cephalosporins].
abstract: Enterobacteriaceae with mixed inducible and constitutive production of AmpC beta-lactamases are of growing clinical significance. Strains showing single colonies inside the zone of inhibition around disks with third-generation cephalosporins should be carefully considered for clinical use despite the fact that, according to the current EUCAST "breakpoints", they remain susceptible or intermediate-susceptible.
