Multiple low-level antibiotic resistance in Aeromonas salmonicida.
Mutants with multiple low-level antibiotic resistance were isolated from virulent wild-type Aeromonas salmonicida strains exposed to a low concentration of any one of several low-molecular-mass (approximately 635 daltons or less) antibiotics. Multiple resistance was toward beta-lactam compounds (penicillin G, ampicillin, cloxacillin), quinolones (flumequine, oxolinic acid, nalidixic acid), tetr...
متن کاملThe mosaic architecture of Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida pAsa4 plasmid and its consequences on antibiotic resistance
Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida, the causative agent of furunculosis in salmonids, is an issue especially because many isolates of this bacterium display antibiotic resistances, which limit treatments against the disease. Recent results suggested the possible existence of alternative forms of pAsa4, a large plasmid found in A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida and bearing multiple antibio...
متن کاملAeromonas salmonicida resistance to complement-mediated killing.
The resistance of Aeromonas salmonicida to complement-mediated killing was investigated by using different strains and their isogenic mutants that had been previously characterized for their surface components. We found that the classical complement pathway is involved in serum killing of susceptible A. salmonicida strains, while the alternative complement pathway seems not to be involved. All ...
متن کاملDiversity of antibiotic-resistance genes in Canadian isolates of Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida: dominance of pSN254b and discovery of pAsa8
The bacterium Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida is a common pathogen in fish farms worldwide. Since the antibiotic resistance of this bacterial species is on the increase, it is important to have a broader view on this issue. In the present study, we tested the presence of known plasmids conferring multi-drug resistance as well as antibiotic resistance genes by a PCR approach in 100 Cana...
متن کاملSiderophore production by Aeromonas salmonicida.
Growth under conditions of iron-restriction and the production of siderophores was examined in 21 typical and 14 atypical strains of Aeromonas salmonicida. With the exception of one atypical strain, all strains grew and multiplied in the presence of the high-affinity iron chelators ethylenediamine di(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid), alpha, alpha'-dipyridyl or transferrin. Chrome azurol S agar was u...
