Highly drug-resistantSalmonella entericaserovar Indiana became the most common serovar in broilers with diarrhea in China over the course of this study (15% in 2010 to 70% in 2014). While mostS. Indiana isolates (87%, 384/440) were resistant to 13 to 16 of the 16 antibiotics tested, 89% of non-S. Indiana isolates (528/595) were resistant to 0 to 6 antibiotics. Class 1 integrons and IncHI2-type plasmids were detected in allS. Indiana isolates, but only in 39% and 1% of non-S. Indiana isolates.

A total of 182 non-typhoid Salmonella enterica (NTS) isolates recovered from patients between 1996 and 2014 were included in the current study focused on class 1 integron detection and its association with multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype. A high prevalence of isolates displaying MDR and penta-resistance (resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfonamide, tetracycline) phenotypes of clinical significance was revealed. Serotype-specific prevalence of antimicrobial resistance as well as class 1 integrons and inserted variable segments was detected in isolates. The results indicated the limitations of current antimicrobial therapy to control infections caused by MDR isolates of NTS, especially belonging to serotype Typhimurium.

ABSTRACT Here, we report the complete genome sequences of four clinical isolates of extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (XDRAB), isolated in Thailand. These results revealed multiple antimicrobial-resistant genes, each involving two sequence type 16 (ST16) isolates, ST2, and a novel sequence type isolate, ST1479.

ABSTRACT The genomes of three clinical isolates of Salmonella enterica subsp. houtenae were sequenced using an Illumina MiSeq instrument. These isolates came from the urine and cerebrospinal fluid of a dog treated for hind-limb paresis with immunosuppressive drugs. S. enterica subsp. houtenae has also been implicated in brain infections in humans.

ABSTRACT We evaluated the in vitro activity of rifamycin derivatives, including rifampin, rifapentine, rifaximin, and rifabutin, against clinical nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) isolates. Of the rifamycin derivatives, rifabutin showed the lowest MICs against all NTM species, including Mycobacterium avium complex, M. abscessus, and M. kansasii. Rifabutin also had effective in vitro activity against macrolide- and aminoglycoside-resistant NTM isolates. Rifabutin could be worth considering as a therapeutic option for NTM disease, particularly drug-resistant disease.

ABSTRACTSulfonamide-trimethoprim-resistantAeromonas salmonicidaand motileAeromonasspp. from diseased fish of the GERM-Vet study carried thesul1gene together with mostly cassette-borne trimethoprim resistance genes, including the novel genedfrA28. The sevendfrAanddfrBgenes identified were located mostly in class 1 integrons which commonly harbored other gene cassettes.

Aeromonas spp. is one of the major pathogens of freshwater animals. There has been little research on the genetics of antimicrobial resistance associated with it in Iranian aquaculture. To remedy this lack in research, 74 multi-drug-resistant Aeromonas spp. were isolated from farmed diseased carp, trout, sturgeon, ornamental fish, crayfish, and corresponding water samples and examined for genomic integron sequences. Class 1 integrons, containing seven types of integron cassette arrays (dfrA1-aadA1, dfrA1-orfC, dfrA12-aadA2, dfrA12-orfF-aadA2, dfrA15, dfrB4-catB3-aadA1, aac(6’)-Ib-cr-arr3-dfrA27) were found in 15% of the resistant isolates; no class 2 integrons were detected in any of the resistant isolates. As some tested isolates were resistant to more than two groups of antibiotics, our results demonstrated that freshwater animals in Iran could be a source of multiply drug-resistant Aeromonas spp. This finding suggests that the origin of the antimicrobial resistance of these animals be placed under increased surveillance in the future and that the use of antimicrobials be limited in aquaculture.
