Colibacillosis in mammals is most often a primary enteric or urinary tract disease, whereas colibacillosis in poultry is typically a localized or systemic disease occurring secondarily when host defenses have been impaired or overwhelmed by virulent E. coli strains. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial drug resistance pattern of Escherichia coli isolated from broiler chickens farms with colibacillosis infection. Dead birds from commercial broiler chicken farms showing signs of colibacillosis were necropsied and swab samples were collected from internal organs and blood aseptically for the isolation of Escherichia coli. Pure colonies of the bacteria were isolated on solid media and the isolates were identified as E. coli based on morphological and biochemical characteristics. For determination of susceptibility to antibacterial agents, the disc diffusion method on Muller-Hinton agar was used. The following antimicrobial agents were tested: gentamycin, oxytetracyline, colistin, ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, nalidixic acid, co-trimoxazole (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole), norefloxacin, lincospectin and cefuroxime. The drug resistance patterns of the organisms were determined as a percentage and reported at three levels: susceptible, intermediate and resistant. All the isolates of Escherichia coli showed resistance to several antibiotics and a pattern of multiple drug resistance was observed. The highest rate of resistance was observed against nalidixic acid (100%) and the least rate of resistance was observed against gentamycin (17%). According to the results of this research care must be taken to avoid secondary infection (colibacillosis) in chicken farms and also avoid in careless antimicrobial consumption in food animals including chickens.展开更多

The study aimed to compare drug-resistant genes and virulence genes between extended spectrum β-1actamases (ESBLs)-producing E.coli and non-ESBLs-producing E.cofi to provide a reference for physicians in management of hospital infection. From October 2010 to August 2011,96 drug-resistant strains of E. coli isolated were collected from the specimens in Qingdao Municipal Hospital, Qingdao, China. These bacteria strains were divided into a ESBLs-producing group and a non-ESBLs-producing group. Drug sensitivity tests were performed using the Kirby-Bauer (K-B) method. Disinfectant gene, qacEAl-sull and 8 virulence genes (CNF2, hlyA, eaeA, VT1, est, bfpA, elt, and CNF1) were tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Among the 96 E.coli isolates, the ESBLs-producing E.coli comprised 46 (47.9%) strains and the non-ESBLs-producing E.cofi consisted of 50 (52.1%) strains. The detection rates of multiple drug-resistant strain, qacEAl-sull, CNF2, hlyA, eaeA,VT1, est, bfpA, elt, and CNF1 in 46 ESBLs-producing E.coli isolates were 89.1%, 76.1%, 6.5%, 69.6%, 69.6%, 89.1%, 10.9%, 26.1%, 8.7%, and 19.6%, respectively. In the non-ESBLs-producing E.cofi strains, the positive rates of multiple drug-resistant strain, qacEAl-sull, CNF2, hlyA, eaeA, VT1, est, bfpA, elt, and CNF1 were 62.0%, 80.0%, 16.0%, 28.0%, 64.0%, 38.0%, 6.0%, 34.0%, 10.0%, and 24.0%, respectively. The difference in the detection rates of multiple drug-resistant strain, hlyA and VT1 between the ESBLs-producing E.cofi strains and the non-ESBLs-producing E.cofi strains was statistically significant (P〈0.05). The positive rate of multiple drug-resistant strains is higher in the ESBLs-producing strains than in the non-ESBLs-producing strains. The expression of some virulence genes hlyA and VT1 varies between the ESBLs-producing strains and the non-ESBLs-producing strains. Increased awareness of clinicians and enhanced testing by laboratories are required to reduce treatment failures and prevent the spread of multiple drug-resistant strains.展开更多

Fifty-four samples were collected from a certain sheep farm in Yangling, Shaanxi Province for E. coli isolation and identification, and K-B disk diffusion method was used to carry out the dug sensitivity test of 40 E. coli to the eight antimicrobials of spectinomycin, amikacin, tobramycin, enrofloxacin, nalidixic acid, levofloxacin, salafloxacin and ciprofloxacin. The results showed that there were 40 positive E. coli strains and the isolation rate was 74.7%. The resistance rates of the 40 E. coli to spectinomycin, amikacin,tobramycin and nalidixic acid were 85%, 95%, 97.5% and 87.5%, respectively, while the resistance rate to enrofloxacin, levofloxacin, salafloxacin and ciprofloxacin were relatively low and the resistance rates were 35%, 20%, 25% and 17.5%, respectively. The isolates showed different levels of drug resistance to eight antimicrobials and the highest resistance rate was 97.5%. It reminds that the sheep farm should strictly control the dosage according to the antimicrobial sensitive data in clinic.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Extended-spectrumβ-lactamase(ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli(E.coli)are among the main pathogens in urinary tract infections(UTIs)among kidney transplant patients(KTPs).AIM To estimate the prevalence of ESBL-producing E.coli in KTPs and to evaluate the most prevalent serotypes and antibacterial susceptibility patterns of isolated bacteria in Tehran,Iran.METHODS A total of 60 clinical isolates of uropathogenic E.coli were collected from 3 kidney transplant centers from April to May 2019.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by the disk diffusion method as recommended by the Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute.The serotyping of E.coli isolates was performed by the slide agglutination method.The presence of blaTEM,blaSHV,and bla CTX-M genes was evaluated by polymerase chain reaction.RESULTS The frequency of ESBL-producing E.coli in KTPs was found to be 33.4%.All of the 60 E.coli isolates were found to be susceptible to doripenem(100%)and ertapenem(100%).High resistance rates to ampicillin(86%),cefotaxime(80%),and cefazolin(77%)were also documented.The most frequent serotypes were serotype I(50%),serotype II(15%),serotype III(25%),and serotype VI(10%).The gene most frequently found was blaTEM(55%),followed by blaCTX-M(51%)and blaSHV(41%).CONCLUSION Molecular analysis showed that blaTEM was the most common ESBL-encoding gene.The high resistance toβ-lactams antibiotics(i.e.,ampicillin,cefotaxime,and cefazolin)found in E.coli from KTPs with UTIs remains a serious clinical challenge.Further efforts to control ESBL-producing E.coli should include the careful use of all antibiotics as well as barrier precautions to reduce spread.

文摘[Objective] Ceftiofur was as the substrate to induce the standard strain of Escherichia coli(E.coli)to be the drug-resistance one.The resistant mechanism of E.coli to ceftiofur was studied.[Method] The sub-inhibitory concentration method was used to induce the standard strains C83907 and C83845.After they were induced for 10 generations,the double disc synergy test(DDST),NCCLS(National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards)confirmatory test and PCR amplification were used to detect the extend spectrum β-lactamases(ESBLs).The two fold dilution method was used to measure the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC)of cetiofur to the strain which produced ESBLs.For the drug-resistance strain which produced ESBLs,the two fold dilution method was used to measure the minimal inhibitory concentrations of different proportions of cetiofur and tazobactam sodium.[Result] After they were induced 15 generations,MIC value of ceftiofur to the induced bacteria was during 8-10 μg/ml,and ESBLs was detected.MICs of cetiofur combining tazobactam sodium(the mass ratio was 1∶1-8∶1)to Escherichia coli produced ESBLs reduced 20-22 times than that of cetiofur.[Conclusion] The main mechanism of pathogenic Escherichia coli resistance to ceftiofur was that which produced ESBLs.
文摘Objective:To detect in vitro biofilm formation of uropathogenic Escherichia coli(E.coli)(UPEC) strains isolated from urine specimens and also to determine their antimicrobial susceptibility pattern using 13 commonly used antibiotics.Methods:The present study comprised of 166 urine specimens collected from tertiary care hospitals in and around Coimbatore.South India. All the specimens were subjected to gram staining,bacterial culture and the E.coli strains were screened for biofilm formation using Tube Method(TM),Congo Red Agar(CRA) and Tissue Culture Plate method(TCP) respectively.Subsequently,the antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed by Kirby Bauer-disk diffusion method for the biofilm and non-biofilm producing E. coli strains.Results:Of the 100(60.2%) E.coli strains,72 strains displayed a biofilm positive phenotype under the optimized conditions in the Tube Method and the strains were classified as highly positive(17,23.6%),moderate positive(19.26.3%) and weakly positive(36.50.0%). similarly under the optimized conditions on Congo Red agar medium,biofilm positive phenotype strains were classified as highly positive(23,23%).moderate positive(37.37%) and weakly positive(40,40%).While in TCP method,the biofilm positive phenotype strains were also classified as highly positive(6.6%),moderate positive(80.80%) and weakly positive(14,14%),it didn’t not correlate well with the tube method for detecting biofilm formation in E.coli.The rates of antibiotic resistance of biofilm producing E.coli were found to be 100%for chloramphenicol and amoxyclav(amoxicillin and clavulanic acid),86%for gentamicin and cefotaxime.84%for ceftazidime,83%for cotrimoxazole and piperacillin/tazobactam,75%for tetracycline and 70% for amikacin,Conclusions:This study reveals the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of biofilm and non-biofilm producing uropathogenic E.coli strains.
