IncF Plasmids Are Commonly Carried by Antibiotic Resistant Escherichia coli Isolated from Drinking Water Sources in Northern Tanzania

Table 3

Frequency of plasmid replicon types detected from E. coli isolates () from surface waters in northern Tanzania.

Replicon type	Number of isolates	Percent of isolates
FIB	5	16%
FIC	4	13%
I1	4	13%
FIA	3	10%
FIIA	3	10%
A/C	3	10%
K/B	3	10%
P	2	6%
HI2	2	6%
B/O	2	6%
N	2	6%

The total percentage sums to 106 because some isolates were positive for more than one replicon type.
