Prevalence of extended spectrum [beta]-lactamase, AmpC [beta]-lactamase and metallo-[beta]-lactamase enzymes among clinical isolates recovered from patients with urinary tract infections in Benin City, Nigeria
shimperi were examined at a concentration of 20 [micro]g/mL against four pathogenic bacterial strains: one Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and three Gram-negative Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Proteus mirabilis. Antibacterial potential of crude extract and isolated pure compound were assessed in terms of zone of inhibition of bacterial growth.
