Awareness of the fecal carriage of ESBL bacteria is very important for the clinicians, microbiologists, infection control practitioners and epidemiologists. Worldwide, the data shows that the presence of these bacteria pose a serious threat to both community and the hospital settings. So this study for the detection of fecal carriage of ESBL producing bacteria is pertinent for framing antibiotic and infection control policy.Keywords
