*Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are generally defined as [[β-lactamases]] that hydrolyze [[penicillins]], first-, second-, and third-generation [[cephalosporins]], and [[aztreonam]], but not [[cephamycins]] or [[carbapenems]]
  +
*This definition excludes AmpC (which hydrolyze [[cephamycins]]) and carbapenemases (which hydrolyze [[carbapenems]])
  +
*Includes primarily Ambler Class A β-lactamases
  +
  +
===Identification===
  +
  +
*ESBLs are screened for by identifying organisms with increased MICs to one or more third-generation [[Cephalosporins|cephalosporin]] or [[Monobactams|monobactam]]
  +
**CLSI uses [[cefpodoxime]], [[ceftazidime]], [[aztreonam]], [[cefotaxime]], or [[ceftriaxone]]

  • Organisms that screen positive have further testing to determine the presence of an ESBL
  • Class A, for all organisms that screen positive,
  • Class B, for organisms that are also resistant to carbapenems
  • Class C, for organisms that are non-susceptible to cefoxitin
    • A double-disc diffusion method is used to test if the results for cefoxitin are attenuated by cloxacillin (that is, if the isolate becomes even more susceptible)
    • An increase in the zone of ≥4 mm is positive for AmpC (Class C ESBL) phenotype
  • Class D, difficult to identify with phenotypic testing
