Abstract
ABSTRACTHere, we report the first autochthonous cases of infections caused byblaNDM-5New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-producingEscherichia colistrains recovered from urine and blood specimens of three patients from Algeria between January 2012 and February 2013. The three isolates belong to sequence type 2659 and they coexpressblaCTX-M-15with theblaTEM-1andblaaadA2genes.
