“…Enterobacteria of the genera Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Morganella, Hafnia and Serratia were less frequently isolated in this study; however, their isolation in wild birds was previously reported in other studies (Gibbs et al, 2007;Santos et al, 2010). Those bacteria are responsible for occasional infections and, in some cases, can function as primary pathogens (Gerlach, 1994, Hidasi et al, 2013, Davies et al, 2016 The absence of Salmonella was also observed in other Brazilian studies, with low detection rates in apparently healthy wild birds, whether maintained in captivity or in the wild (Allgayer et al, 2009;Santos et al, 2010;Lopes et al, 2015, Machado et al, 2016. Because psittacines are very sensitive to avian salmonellosis, particularly at young ages , the absence of Salmonella spp in the present study suggests that the evaluated birds were not exposed to any pathogen of this genus (Godoy, 2007).…”

“…Thus, the presence of Gram-negative bacteria, including those belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family, in their intestinal microbiota has been considered an indication of potential diseases (Bangert et al, 1988;Mattes et al, 2005). Currently, microbiological studies with psittacine have increasingly isolated enterobacteria in healthy birds (Serafini et al, 2015;Lopes et al, 2015;Machado et al, 2016), which may indicate a more opportunistic role of these agents (Hidasi et al, 2013).…”

The psittacine Pyrrhura griseipectus is a threatened species currently only found in Ceará State, Brazil. A microbiological survey was conducted to determine the composition of the enteric microbiota of this species, as well as the phenotypic profiles of antimicrobial susceptibility presented by the isolates. Cloacal swabs were collected from individual birds and submitted to microbiological processing. Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were evaluated using the disk diffusion method. Bacteria of the genus Escherichia,

“…In Brazil, Pontes et al [ 24 ] detected the resistance genes str AB, bla TEM, tet A, tet B, aad A, apha A, sul 1, sul 2, and sul 3 associated with plasmids in cloacal avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) strains from Nymphicus hollandicus in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Cloacal E. coli from Pyrrhura griseipectus was phenotypically resistant to azithromycin, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, streptomycin and tetracycline [ 25 ]. Resistance to tobramycin and streptomycin was observed in cloacal E. coli from Amazona aestiva , Ara chloroptera and Ara ararauna from Parque das Aves de Toledo, Paraná (Brazil) [ 7 ].…”

The emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance pose a threat to public health globally. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes can disseminate among environments, animals and humans. Therefore, investigation into potential reservoirs of multidrug-resistant bacteria is of great importance to the understanding of putative transmission routes of resistant bacteria and resistance genes. This study aimed to report the occurrence of Escherichia coli harboring the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing gene (blaKPC) in Psittaciformes rescued from wildlife trafficking in Paraíba State, Brazil. Cloacal swabs were collected from thirty birds and cultured by conventional microbiology using MacConkey and serum tryptone glucose glycerol (STGG) media supplemented with selective antimicrobials. E. coli isolates (n = 43) were identified by phenotypic tests and confirmed by MALDI-TOF. Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were determined by means of Kirby–Bauer test. All isolates were further screened for extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production, and putative genes encoding ESBL were investigated by PCR. Additionally, blaKPC-harboring strains were genotyped by REP-PCR. A total of 43 E. coli phenotypically resistant isolates were recovered. The highest resistance rate was observed against ciprofloxacin. Among the resistance genes, only blaKPC was found in seven different birds from three species. According to the genotyping, these seven isolates belonged to four different strains. To date, this is the first report on the occurrence of KPC-E. coli in Psittaciformes rescued from trafficking in Northeastern Brazil. Due to the high clinical importance of KPC-E. coli, our findings suggest that wild animals in captivity at wildlife rescue centers can play a role as reservoirs of bacteria that are resistance to Critically Important antimicrobials in human medicine.

“…It is always more expected to detect cases of antimicrobial resistance in birds raised in captivity than those that live in the wild. In addition to the possibility of inappropriate use of antibiotics, this may occur when birds have greater contact with other animals that possess and disseminate resistant strains [73,74]. However, our research showed cases of free-living bird strains with relevant antimicrobial resistance rates, mainly involving ampicillin, nalidixic acid and amoxicillin associated with clavulanic acid.…”

Caatinga is a biome unique to Brazil that is degraded by anthropogenic actions, which lead to the loss of biodiversity putting many species at risk of extinction. The Ceará State is located in the Caatinga and has a rich avifauna comprised of 433 species including 13 species that are threatened with extinction, which are found in the Baturité Massif. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and diversity of enterobacteria in wild birds and to determine their susceptibility to antimicrobials. Cloacal swab samples were collected from 50 individuals of 28 different species, including the Ceara Gnatheter (Conopophaga cearae) and Red-necked Tanager (Tangara cyanocephala cearensis), which are classified as vulnerable (VU) by the Brazilian Ministry of the Environment. A total of 55 isolates belonging to 14 different species of Enterobacteriaceae were identified. Among these, Pantoea agglomerans and Escherichia coli were the most prevalent species with isolation rates of 36% and 26%, respectively. The highest rate of antimicrobial resistance found was to ampicillin (41.8%), followed by nalidixic Acid (36.3%) and amoxicillin associated with clavulanic acid (32.7%). The drugs with the best efficacy were tobramycin (96.4%), ciprofloxacin (92.6%) and tetracycline (90.9%). Multidrug resistance was observed in 23.5% of the analyzed strains. This research provides important information about the composition of the cloacal microbiota of wild birds in Mulungu, Brazil, as well as their health status. In addition, these results demonstrate that they harbor multidrug-resistant strains of Enterobacteriaceae.
