Antibiotic Sensitivity Test and Detection of Sulfonamide Resistance Gene Sul2 in Escherichia coli Isolates from Swine

[ Objective] This study aimed to analyze antibiotic sensitivity and detect sulfonamide resistance gene Sul2 in 17 Escherichia coli isolates from swine. [ Method] The antibiotic sensitivity of 17 E. coil isolates from swine was analyzed with Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. Sulfonamide resistance gene Sul2 was detected by PCR amplification with the extracted genomic DNA as a template. [ Result] The 17 swine-derived E. coli isolates from different regions were resistant to various antibiotics and exhibited different multi-antibiotic resistance phenotypes, including nine isolates resistant to sulfamethoxazole, seven isolates resistant to oxacillin, ten isolates resistant to cefazolin and eight isolates resistant to erythromycin. Sulfonamide resistance gene Sul2 was successfully amplified from genomic DNA of E. coli isolates. The PCR results were basically consistent with antibiotic resistance phenotypes of these strains. [ Conclusion] Sul2 gene was widespread in swine-derived E. coli, which was closely associated with sulfonamide resistance phenotvpes of E. coli.

猪源大肠杆菌药敏试验结果与分析

猪大肠杆菌病是一类由致病性大肠杆菌引发的传染病,常导致幼龄猪群发生严重腹泻和败血症,发病过程短,死亡率高。猪场发生猪大肠杆菌病后,通常会用抗生素治疗,但在长期用药过程中,如果用药不规范,耐药菌株数量会显著增加,导致多种抗生素治疗效果逐渐下降,大肠杆菌多重耐药性的产生使该病的防治难度越来越大。该文从山东省莱阳市部分规模化猪场筛选出大肠杆菌菌株并进行药敏试验,希望筛选出更敏感的药物,提高疾病防控效果。

猪源大肠杆菌tem耐药基因的检测

为了解和掌握大肠杆菌耐药性的流行情况,从而为控制大肠杆菌的耐药性提供科学依据,用K-B法对临床分离的15株猪源大肠杆菌进行β内酰胺类抗生素药敏试验,以15株分离菌DNA为模板对β内酰胺类抗生素耐药基因tem进行PCR扩增。结果表明:15株猪源大肠杆菌对β内酰胺类抗生素均耐药,耐药率从高到低分别为头孢哌酮(82%)、头孢噻肟(24%)、头孢他啶(18%)、头孢呋辛(6%)、苯唑西林(6%);PCR扩增均检测到β内酰胺类抗生素耐药基因tem。说明β内酰胺类抗生素耐药基因tem广泛存在于猪源大肠杆菌中,与抗生素敏感性表型一致。
