Abstract
The TEM-24 extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), initially characterized in Klebsiella pneumoniae ([3][1]), is currently the predominant ESBL in France ([4][2]). This could be related to the spread of a TEM-24-producing Enterobacter aerogenes clone present in most French hospitals ([1][3]) but alsoKeywords
