<br/><br/> In recent years there has been an increase in infections caused by extended - spectrum Ý - lactamases ( ESBL ) - producing strains and AmpC producing strain of Gram - negative bacili . These infections are associated with significantly higher morbidity and mortality . Classical microbiology results are not available for at least 48 h after clinical specimens are taken , with this period further extended if additional investigations are done
