Antimicrobial resistance of Aeromonas hydrophila isolated from different food sources: A mini-review.
Aeromonas hydrophila is a Gram-negative, oxidase-positive, facultative, anaerobic, opportunistic aquatic pathogen. A. hydrophila produces virulence factors, such as hemolysins, aerolysins, adhesins, enterotoxins, phospholipase and lipase. In addition to isolation from aquatic sources, A. hydrophila has been isolated from meat and meat products, milk and dairy products, and vegetables. However, ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance of Β-haemolytic Aeromonas Hydrophila Strains Isolated from Rainbow Trouts (oncorhynchus Mykiss)
The aim of this study was to isolate β-haemolytic Aeromonas hydrophila strains from live rainbow trouts (Oncorhynchus mykiss) destined for human consumption and to investigate their resistance to antimicrobial drugs. Sterile swab samples were collected from 52 rainbow trouts. Fifteen (28.8%) βhaemolytic Aeromonas strains were isolated from collected 52 swab samples. Through API 20 NE, 12 of the...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Aeromonas hydrophila.
Minimal inhibitory concentration determinations and disk diffusion and Autobac 1 susceptibility tests were performed on 22 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila. Eleven of the strains had discrepancies between Autobac and disk diffusion or minimal inhibitory concentration results. These discrepancies occurred with the beta-lactam antibiotics, primarily carbenicillin and cephalothin. It is recommended...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance patterns and plasmid profiles of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from milk and meat.
OBJECTIVES To determine the frequency of resistance of Staphylococcus aureus to various antimicrobial agents, and the relationship between antimicrobial resistance of the isolates and carriage of plasmids. DESIGN A random sampling of milk and meat samples was carried out. SETTING Milk was collected from various dairy co-operative societies in Nairobi and Kiambu districts. Minced meat sample...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance profile of Aeromonas species isolated from Libya
A eromonas species are Gram-negative, oxidasepositive rods in the family Aeromonadaceae. These organisms have been isolated from untreated drinking water and different types of foods particularly seafood and frozen chicken. Aeromonas species are recognized as agents of serious infections in immunocompromised individuals including septicemia in patients with hepatic cirrhosis with a rapidly fata...
