Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance is becoming a problem in public health. Zoonotic food-borne bacteria is infectious agent that can be transferred from animal to human through the food-producing animal we consume. Nowadays, antibiotic used for human and animal is not only to cure infection but also to aim animal’s growth promotion. It is known as non therapeutic antimicrobial agent (NTA) leading to antibiotic resistance. The third generation cephalosporins, cefotaxime, and also cefoxitin are included as important antibiotic for human. This study aims to identify the presence of cefotaxime-resistant Escherichia coli and cefoxitin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from chicken meat of both traditional and modern market in Surabaya.Methods: This is descriptive post test only experimental research. We used 8 samples of chicken meat from 4 different market using purposive sampling technique. We cultured Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus from the chicken meat. Sensitivity test was done using Kirby-bauer disk-diffusion method.Results: All chicken meat sample bought from traditional market in Surabaya are contaminated by cefotaxime-sensitive Escherichia coli (n=4/4) while chicken meat sample bought from modern market are not contaminated by Escherichia coli (n=0/4). All chicken meat sample bought from traditional (n=4/4) are also contaminated by cefoxitin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. Half of chicken meat sample bought from modern market (n=2/4) are contaminated by cefoxitin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus, while the other half (n=2/4) are contaminated by cefoxitin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.Conclusion: Antibiotic resistance is found and all chicken meat samples have been highly contaminated with bacteria therefore food-processing should be done correctly.

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) are contributors to infection cases among the Asian population. S. aureus is found in the mucous lining of noses and is mainly non-pathogenic while E. coli, mostly harmless bacteria, are found in the intestine. Pathogenic strains of both bacteria have adverse effects on the elderly and younger age group of the population. Samples were collected from recreational parks around Kota Kinabalu as they are hotspots frequently visited by families with both age groups. The bacterial samples were isolated and cultured on selective media such as Baird-Parker agar (BPA), Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar, MacConkey agar and Eosin-Methylene Blue (EMB) agar. Morphological characteristics of bacterial growth were observed, where S. aureus had black-shiny growth in BPAand E. coli had a metallic-green sheen in EMB agar. The suspected bacteria samples were then stained and viewed under a light microscope. S. aureus was identified as gram-positive, stained violet with a circular shape and clustered  appearance. E. coli was identified as gram-negative, stained red, rod-shaped with 2 – 3 bacterial alignment. Antibiotic resistance test resulted in S. aureus and E. coli samples did not display 100% resistance among 4 antibiotics tested (ampicillin, penicillin, tetracycline and chloramphenicol). Most of the bacteria samples were a minimum inhibitory of 0.1 mg/mL of antibiotic concentration. These results provide a foundation for further research on identifying bacterial strains using molecular methods. The findings can then be used to disseminate information to the public to create awareness of potential disease outbreaks in the city.

Infectious diseases are a disease caused by bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. One way to overcome the disease by using antibiotics. However, wise use can lead to antibiotic resistance, so many bacteria are resistant to antibiotics. Therefore it is necessary to search the natural compounds as antibacterials, one of them by using lemongrass (Cymbopogon nardus). This study aims to determine the effectiveness of leaf extracts, stems, and roots lemongrass as antibacterial. The method used in this research is the disc method. Bacteria used are E. coli and S. aureus. The results show extracts of roots, stems, and leaf has activity against S. aureus, while  E. coli shows no activity as antibacterial, it can be possible because of the different properties of the bacteria.   Keywords: anti-bacteria, lemongrass, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus

Antibiotic resistance is a global problem of modern medicine. In the research a microflora of out-patient department visitors in 2018–2019 was examined. It was revealed that the most often microbes were Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Escherichia coli. The dynamics of bacterial resistance to antibiotics was also analyzed. The multiple bacterial resistance to antibiotics were detected. The data show a rapid resistance genes spread among non-hospital strains, which necessitates constant monitoring of antibiotic sensitivity in order to develop the right tactics to combat antibiotic resistance.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance is one of the latest challenges facing the scientific community. Raising the drug resistance is caused mainly by indiscriminate usage of antibiotics in human and animal subjects and the spread of antibiotic resistance between the two has an emerging global threat. Hence, current study aimed to study the antimicrobial resistance pattern and molecular detection of antibiotic resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli isolated from mastitis affected cows. Methods: Milk samples from mastitis affected cows were subjected to antibiotic sensitivity test and screened for presence of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli using differential growth media. Molecular characterization of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was done with the help of PCR by amplification of ‘nuc’ and ‘uspA’ gene respectively. MICs of Penicillin and Tetracycline were determined using microdilution method. Result: Antibiotic sensitivity pattern for Penicillin G, Ampicillin, Amoxycillin, Cefotaxime, Ceftriaxone, Azithromycin, Ciprofloxacin, Gentamicin, Oxytetracycline, Tetracycline and Vancomycin were 74.19%, 100%, 93.50%, 61.29%, 29%, 35.48%, 9.70%, 9.70%, 70.96% and 70.96% respectively. More than 87.90% of the S. aureus and 50% of the E. coli isolated were resistant to â-lactam antibiotics while 75% of the E.coli and 65.70% of the S. aureus isolated were resistant to Tetracycline antibiotics. The MICs of Penicillin for S.aureus and E.coli are 26.88 µg/ml and 13.54 µg/ml respectively and the MICs of Tetracycline for S. aureus and E. coli are 243.75 µg/ml and 960.93 µg/ml respectively which is 8-9 folds higher than the standard MICs. From the present study, it can be inferred that bovine mastitis cases are highly resistant to antimicrobial drugs. Results further indicate that Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli are both resistant to Penicillin and Tetracycline with very high MIC.

Exposure To Cold

To evaluate the effect of sub-lethal exposure to cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) on their antibiotic resistance, Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus mutans, and Candida albicans were exposed in vitro to a commercially available CAP. This antimicrobial CAP inhibited growth but changed survivors’ antibiotic resistance.
