During the year 2004, 178 human and 158 bovine clinical Salmonella isolates were collected across New York State to better understand the transmission dynamics and genetic determinants of antimicrobial resistance among human and bovine hosts. Serotyping, sequence typing, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis typing results have been reported previously. Here we tested all isolates for phenotypic susceptibility to 15 antimicrobial drugs that are part of the National Antimicrobial Monitoring System bovine susceptibility panel. PCR was performed on a representative subset of unique isolates (n = 53) to screen for the presence of 21 known antimicrobial resistance genes (i.e., ampC, bla(TEM) (1), bla(CMY) (2), bla(PSE) (1), cat1, cat2, cmlA, flo, aadA1, aadA2, aacC2, strA, strB, aphA1-IAB, dhrfI, dhrfXII, sulI, sulII, tetA, tetB, and tetG); selected fluoroquinolone- and nalidixic acid-resistant (n = 3) and -sensitive (n = 6) isolates were also tested for known resistance-conferring mutations in gyrA and parC. Genes responsible for antimicrobial resistance were shared among isolates of human and bovine origin. However, bovine isolates were significantly more likely than human isolates to be multidrug resistant (P < 0.0001; Fisher's exact test). Our analyses showed perfect categorical agreement between phenotypic and genotypic resistance for beta-lactam and chloramphenicol. Our data confirm that resistance profiles of amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, and tetracycline were strongly associated with the presence of bla(CMY) or ampC, flo, aphA1-IAB, and tetA, respectively. Our findings provide evidence for the clinical value of genotypic resistance typing if incorporating multiple known genes that can confer a phenotypic resistance profile.

Characterization of plasmids form multi drug resistance salmonella infantis isolates
Aydın, Sacide Özlem; Soyer, Yeşim; Department of Food Engineering (2018)
The usage and misusage of antibiotics in poultry, food-producing animals and human diseases have led to transmission of conjugative plasmids carrying antibiotic resistance genes from one microorganism to another, especially to the pathogenic bacteria. Multi-drug resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis, an emerging serotype in poultry, has been spreading all around the world in a decade. Moreover, commensal microorganisms such as commensal Escherichia coli in the gut microbiota, functioning as a reser...

Background: The bacterium Salmonella enterica includes a diversity of serotypes that cause disease in humans and different animal species. Some Salmonella serotypes show a broad host range, some are host restricted and exclusively associated with one particular host, and some are associated with one particular host species, but able to cause disease in other host species and are thus considered "host adapted". Five Salmonella genome sequences, representing a broad host range serotype (Typhimurium), two host...

The antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella and other foodborne pathogenic bacteria, witnessed in recent years, has become a significant health concern. Bacteria use chemical signals to communicate each other and regulate their behavior including virulence. Due to increasing antibiotic resistance, new drug development strategies are being investigated and the use of active ingredients of various medicinal and aromatic plants as alternatives to antibiotics is tested. This study aimed to determine the anti-quo...
