Detection of Drug Resistance in Escherichia coli Isolated from Animals and ERIC Analysis of Multidrug-resistant Strains

The drug resistance of Escherichia coli from animals was detected in Shandong Province in 2016,the gene mapping of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus-PCR (ERIC-PCR) of multidrug-resistant isolates were analyzed,and then the relationship between ERIC-PCR genotyping and drug resistance of highly-resistant E.coli with multidrug resistance was discussed.A total of 110 E.coli isolates were separated and identified from diseased swine and avian,and their resistance to 10 kinds of antimicrobials was determined by the agar dilution method.Twenty highly-resistant isolates with multidrug resistance were selected to carry on the ERIC-PCR,followed by cluster genetic analysis according to the DNA fingerprints.The swine-sourced E.coli isolates possessed serious resistance against several kinds of antimicrobial agents,for example,all isolates were tolerant to florfenicol,doxycycline and ampicillin (100%),but had a relative lower resistance rate to cefotaxime sodium (57.14%).The same situation was observed in the poultry-sourced E.coli isolates,which had a resistance rate of 95.51% against florfenicol,while the lowest rate of 61.80% appeared on ciprofloxacin.Analysis of ERTIC showed dispersive fingerprint patterns of highly-resistant and multidrug- resistant isolates which represented a multiple clone resources,and there were certain correlation between the B genotype and the drug-resistant characteristics.It indicated that the animal-sourced E.coli isolates had a high level of drug resistance and were multidrug-resistant,which meant there was severe antibiotic resistance against not only different kinds of antibiotics but also different drugs of the same kind.The highly-resistant E.coli isolates with multidrug resistance had no apparent species preference,while their spread and pervasion posed a potential threat to the development of animal husbandry and the public health security.

[Objective] This study aimed to isolate and identify the drug-resistant Es- cherichia coli strains from chickens. [Method] E. coli strains were isolated from the fecal samples collected from five chicken farms around Shangqiu City, and verified by biochemical and pathogenic assay. [Result] Among the 35 isolated E. coli stains, 11 E. coil stains were sensitive to florfenicol, amikacin, neomycin and gentamicin; 12 E. coli stains were moderately sensitive to ciprofloxacin, doxycycline and norfloxacin; 15 E. coil stains were resistant against erythromycin, penicillin and streptomycin. [Conclusion] Strengthening biosecurity measures, rationally using vaccine and choosing effective antibiotics are the most cost-efficient methods to control E. coli.

Antimicrobial Drug Resistance Pattern of <i>Escherichia coli</i>Isolated from Chickens Farms with Colibacillosis Infection

Colibacillosis refers to any localized or systemic infection caused entirely or partly by avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). 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.

Taking sixcommon antibiotics as the control, drug susceptibility test was conducted with volatile oil of A. argyi. The results showed that 10 strains of E. coliwere sensitive to the volatile oil of A. argyi, three of which had different degrees of resistance and one had the tendency of resistance.

Comparison of extended spectrum β-lactamasesproducing Escherichia coli with non-ESBLsproducing E.coli:drug-resistance and virulence

The virulent factors of Escherichia coil （E.cofi） play an important role in the process of pathopoiesis. 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.

Prevalence,serotyping and drug susceptibility patterns of Escherichia coli isolates from kidney transplanted patients with urinary tract infections

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.

Study on the Resistance of Pathogenic Escherichia coli to Ceftiofur

[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.
