Antibacterial Efficacy of N-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl) Thiophene-2-Carboxamide Analogues against Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamase Producing Clinical Strain of Escherichia coli ST 131.

ABSTRACT: Development in the fields of natural-product-derived and synthetic small molecules is in stark contrast to the ongoing demand for novel antimicrobials to treat life-threatening infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli (ESBL E. coli). Therefore, there is an interest in the antibacterial activities of synthesized N-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl) thiophene-2-carboxamides (4a-h) against ESBL-producing E. coli ST131 strains. A blood sample was obtained from a suspected septicemia patient and processed in the Bactec Alert system. The isolate's identification and antibacterial profile were determined using the VITEK 2^® compact system. Multi-locus sequence typing of E. coli was conducted by identifying houseke
