Plasmid Profiles of Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli from Clinically Healthy Swine
نویسندگان
چکیده
A total of 145 Escherichia coli isolates originated from clinically-healthy pigs were analyzed for plasmid profiles. All but one isolate (n=144) carried one to nine plasmids with size ranging from 0.7-16.2 Mda. Fifty-six plasmid profiles were defined based on sizes and numbers of plasmids in each strain, of which the most common patterns were 15.8, 4, 3.3, 1.7, 1.3 Mda and 16.2, 15.8, 4, 3.3, 2.3, 1.7, 1.3, 1, 0.7 Mda. The results indicate wide distribution of plasmids among the commensal E. coli isolates originated from clinically-healthy pigs.

The present study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern of Escherichia coli strains isolatedfrom animals to ascertain the levels of antibiotic resistance pervasiveness. A total of 28 E. coli strains wereisolated from faecal samples and the antibiotic resistance pattern of E. coli strains was determined by meansof disc diffusion assay. The resistance pattern determined for all stra...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of a Multidrug- and Colistin-Resistant mcr-1-Producing Escherichia coli Isolate from a Swine Farm in Mexico
A colistin-resistant mcr-1-carrying Escherichia coli strain, RC2-007, was isolated from a swine farm in Mexico. This extraintestinal and uropathogenic strain of E. coli belongs to serotype O89:H9 and sequence type 744. Assembly and annotation resulted in a 4.9-Mb draft genome that revealed the presence of plasmid-mediated mcr-1-ISApI1 genes as part of a prophage.

Resistant plasmid profile analysis of multidrug resistant Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infections in Abeokuta, Nigeria.
BACKGROUND Multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli has become a major threat and cause of many urinary tract infections (UTIs) in Abeokuta, Nigeria. OBJECTIVES This study was carried out to determine the resistant plasmids of multidrug resistant Escherichia coli isolated from (Urinary tract infections)UTIs in Abeokuta. METHODS A total of 120 Escherichia coli isolates were obtained from urine ...
متن کاملPrevalence of Class 1 Integrons and Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases among Multi-Drug Resistant Escherichia coli Isolates from North of Iran
Background: Extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) are an important cause of transferable multidrug resistance (MDR) in gram-negative bacteria. The most described ESBL genes are generally found within integron-like structures as mobile genetic elements. The aim of this study was to identify the accompanying of class 1 integrons and ESBLs in the MDR E. coli isolates. Methods: Susceptibility t...
