Whole genome sequencing revealed ESBL/pAmpC-producing E. coli isolates belonging to clonal lineages ST429 and ST2040. However, the finding of E. coli cultured without antibiotic selection in two (2.2%) embryos strengthens the need to study E. coli transmission in poultry production in more ...
A smaller sub-set (N = 27, due to restricted availability of antimicrobial disks) was examined for sus- ceptibility to β-lactam + β-lactamase inhibitor combina- tions, and also showed 100% resistance except for 1/12 of the E. coli isolates. However, no data was recorded ...
For European coverage EARS-net has a yearly report presenting levels of bacteria with resistance to third generation cephalosporins from clinical isolates [26]. In our study all countries except Denmark and Poland had ESBL levels higher then presented for clinical E. coli isolates from Europe in ...
A total of 113 ESBL E. coli isolates from sheep (n = 65) and their abattoir environment (n = 48) were subjected to whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the WGS data. Multiple CTX-M-type beta-lactamase genes were detected, namely blaCTX-M-1, blaCT...
coli pathotypes (UPEC/APEC). However, enterotoxin genes, such as astA, ltcA and stb were also identified, indicating a possible hybrid pathogenic nature. Various replicons associated to plasmids, previously recovered in pathogenic bacteria, were identified (e.g., IncN and IncR plasmid), supporting...
The bla SFO-1 gene was later detected in an outbreak clone of multidrug-resistance (MDR) E. cloacae in Spain3, and in three Klebsiella pneumoniae and one Escherichia coli clinical isolates in China4,5. However, the complete structure of bla SFO-1-harboring plasmids is still unknown. IMP-4...
