چکیده

Transcriptional organization of bla(CTX-M-2) present in a multiresistance plasmid of Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis suggests the presence of more than one promoter involved in the expression of the beta-lactamase gene. At least two bla(CTX-M-2)-specific mRNAs (near to 1 kb and 5 kb) were evidenced. Two +1 signals were detected at -22 bp and -59 bp of bla(CTX-M-2) defining two putative promoters.

Chronological Change of Resistance to β-Lactams in Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis Isolated from Broilers in Japan

Epidemiologic surveillance study was conducted in southern Japan to determine the antimicrobial resistance phenotypes and characterize the β-lactamase genes and the plasmids harboring these genes in Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis (S. Infantis) isolates from broilers. Between January, 2007 and December, 2008, a total of 1,472 fecal samples were collected and examined at the Laboratory of V...

Pediatric infection due to multiresistant Salmonella enterica serotype Infantis in Honduras.

We report the case of a pediatric patient with a Salmonella enterica serotype Infantis infection. Detailed microbiological investigation revealed that this isolate carries four beta-lactamase genes (bla(TEM-1b) variant, bla(SHV-5), bla(CTX-M-15), and bla(CMY-2)) conferring resistance to all beta-lactams but imipenem. This is the first report of a Salmonella isolate with CTX-M and AmpC enzymes o...

Background and Objective: Salmonella spp. are enteric pathogens with a worldwide distribution comprising a large number of serovars characterized by different hosts and distribution. Among Salmonella spp., the number of infections and diseases caused by the serotype Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis started to increase significantly in the last decade. The aim of this study was to investigat...

Comparative analysis of IncHI2 plasmids carrying blaCTX-M-2 or blaCTX-M-9 from Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica strains isolated from poultry and humans.

Salmonella enterica bla(CTX-M-2) and bla(CTX-M-9) plasmid backbones from isolates from Belgium and France were analyzed. The bla(CTX-M-2-)plasmids from both human and poultry isolates were related to the IncHI2 pAPEC-O1-R plasmid, previously identified in the United States in avian Escherichia coli strains; the bla(CTX-M-9) plasmids were closely related to the IncHI2 R478 plasmid.

Increase in Resistance to Extended-Spectrum Cephalosporins in Salmonella Isolated from Retail Chicken Products in Japan

Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Salmonella are one of the most important public health problems in developed countries. ESBL-producing Salmonella strains have been isolated from humans in Asian countries neighboring Japan, along with strains harboring the plasmid-mediated extended-spectrum cephalosporin (ESC)-resistance gene, ampC (pAmpC). However, only a few studies have investi...
