Methods: Identified the β-lactamases production strain from AmP HI was isolated from clinical cases with K-B method. β-lactamase encoding gene in enzyme production strains were detected by PCR with lactamase gene specific primers, and both plasmid and chromosomal DNA samples. Results: Thirty-two out of 36 (88 .9% ) were found to be β-lactamase production. Twenty-nine out of 32 enzyme production stain were PCR positive (the ratio of PCR positives 90.6% ). There were 25 stains amplified with plasmid DNA positively, and 4 with chromosomal DNA. Conclusion: (l ) Most of the AmPr HI strain produce lactamase is mediated by plasmid. (2) Detection of lactamase encoding gene in HI is a simple and efficient approach to study the molecular basis of ampicillin resistance.展开更多
