Drug resistance and R plasmids in Salmonella typhi isolated in Korea.
A total of 949 strains of Salmonella typhi isolated in Korea from 1968 to 1975 were tested for drug resistance and distribution of R plasmids. Resistance was mostly restricted to streptomycin (SM) and sulfisomidine (SA), singly or in combination, at a low degree. A small number of strains (1.5%) were resistant to four or more drugs: chloramphenicol (CM), tetracycline (TC), SM, SA, ampicillin (A...
متن کاملComplete DNA sequence and analysis of the transferable multiple-drug resistance plasmids (R Plasmids) from Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida isolates collected in Japan and the United States.
Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida is a bacterial fish pathogen that causes a disease known as pasteurellosis. Two transferable multiple-drug resistance (R) plasmids, pP99-018 (carrying resistance to kanamycin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and sulfonamide) and pP91278 (carrying resistance to tetracycline, trimethoprim, and sulfonamide), isolated from P. damselae subsp. piscicida strains...
متن کاملMechanisms of Evolution in High-Consequence Drug Resistance Plasmids
The dissemination of resistance among bacteria has been facilitated by the fact that resistance genes are usually located on a diverse and evolving set of transmissible plasmids. However, the mechanisms generating diversity and enabling adaptation within highly successful resistance plasmids have remained obscure, despite their profound clinical significance. To understand these mechanisms, we ...

متن کاملTransferable drug resistance plasmids in fish-pathogenic bacteria
Chemotherapeutic agents have been developed for treating bacterial infections and have been widely used for cultured fish for the last 30 years in Japan. The extensive use of chemotherapeutants has resulted in an increase in the occurrence of drug resistance in fish-pathogenic bacteria and also in the bacterial flora of the intestinal tract of cultured fish. The kinds of chemotherapeutants used...
