Abstract
NDM-producing Enterobacteriaceae have increased worldwide in human infections, but are still rare in food-producing animals. 1 The only NDM type described in cattle so far was NDM-5, 2–4 always carried by IncX plasmids. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents the first description of a blaNDM-1 gene in Escherichia coli isolated from cattle, carried in an IncC plasmid.Keywords
