title: Development of a phenotypic method for detection of fecal carriage of OXA-48-producing enterobacteriaceae after incidental detection from clinical specimen.
abstract: We report incidental isolation of an OXA-48-producing Escherichia coli strain in urine of a 62-year-old woman recently returning from a 2-month vacation in Morocco. Commercially available extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-targeting medium failed to detect it in the patient's stools, although a locally developed and easy-to-implement method using ertapenem-supplemented brain heart infusion (BHI) broths could.
