چکیده

A total of 49 isolates of V. parahaemolyticus and 8 isolates of V. cholerae isolated from freshwater fish of patin (Pangasius hypopthalmus) and red tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) were purchased from different retail level in Selangor, Malaysia. All of the isolates showed a multiple resistances towards all 15 antibiotics tested. Some of the isolates show a high resistance to different antibiotics including bacitracin, vancomycin, tetracycline, furazididone, cephalothin and erythromycin. However, both species was susceptible towards imipenem. Overall antibiotics resistance patterns of all isolates were resistant from 2 to 14 resistance patterns with multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index ranging from 0.13 to 0.93 respectively. As the results obtained in the dendrogram produced from both species had indicates that these antibiotics were intensively used whether in the aquaculture farm through feeds during culture or at the hatchery production of seed. Thus, this study will provides an essential information of the MAR index and also the clustering analysis in order to determine the biosafety of Vibrio spp. in freshwater aquaculture fish sold at different retail level in Malaysia.

Environmental vibrios represent a source of antagonistic compounds that inhibit pathogenic Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains

With the overuse of antibiotics, many pathogens including Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus have evolved multidrug resistance making treatment more difficult. While understanding the mechanisms that underlie pathogenesis is crucial, knowledge of bacterial interactions of V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus could provide insight to their susceptibility outside of the human host. Based ...

Simultaneous Detection of Integrase and Antibiotic Resistance Genes within SXT Constin in Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor Strains Isolated from Iran Using Multiplex-PCR

Objective(s) Amongst the various antibiotic resistant elements in Vibrio. cholerae, SXT constin (SXT-C) is important. We were going to design a quick method for determination of antibiotic resistance gene pattern in SXT-C. Materials and Methods Ninety four V. cholerae O1El Tor isolates were used in this study. Antibiotic susceptibility testing, multiplex PCR amplification of SXT-C containing...
