abstract

the present work was conducted to compare the occurrence of escherichia coli possessing virulence and esbl genes in backyard and farmed poultry. three hundred and sixty samples from the poultry kept in backyard system and 120 samples from the farmed birds were collected from west bengal, india. among the e. coli isolates of backyard poultry (o2, o10, o25, o55, o60, o106, ut), none of them possessed any of the shiga toxin genes and eight e. coli isolates (8/272; 2.9%) harboured eaea gene alone. whereas among the e. coli isolated from the farmed poultry (o17, o20, o22, o102, o114, o119, rough, ut), four isolates (4/78,5.1%) harboured stx1/stx2 gene and 11 isolates (11/78, 14.1%) possessed eaea gene. none of the e. coli isolates from the backyard poultry harboured any studied esbl gene. whereas 29.4% of e. coli isolates from the farmed poultry were found to possess the sbl genes.

Fecal carriage of Escherichia coli harboring extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes by sheep and broilers in Urmia region, Iran

Background: There is a growing concern on the impact of the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli isolated from animals on public health. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of three classes of ESBL genes in E. coli isolates from sheep and broilers at a slaughter in Urmia region, Iran. METHODS: A total of 111 E. coli isolates w...

Lytic Activity of Isolated Phage from Milk Against Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase Escherichia coli

 Background and purpose: Escherichia coli (E.coli) is the most common cause of urinary tract infection. The treatment strategy has been hampered by the emergence of broad-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing E.coli and its resistance to most antibiotics. Bacteriophages are suggested as an alternative treatment option. This study aimed at evaluating the lytic activity of isolated phage from unpaste...

Detection of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli on flies at poultry farms.

In the Netherlands, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli bacteria are highly prevalent in poultry, and chicken meat has been implicated as a source of ESBL-producing E. coli present in the human population. The current study describes the isolation of ESBL-producing E. coli from house flies and blow flies caught at two poultry farms, offering a potential alternativ...

Phenotypic and genotypic studies of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) resistance among Salmonella isolates from poultry sources in Iran

BACKGROUND: Poultry and poultry products are among the major sources of Salmonella infections for humans. Increasing occurrence of antimicrobial resistance among Salmonellae has become a serious public health concern. The detection of extended spectrum b-lactamase (ESBL) producers among Salmonella spp. has increased in recent years. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the a...
