Differences in the antibiotic susceptibility of human Escherichia coli with poultry-associated and non-poultry-associated extended-spectrum beta-lactamases

Abstract: The concurrent presence of bla CTX-M-1 and bla TEM-52 genes on similar plasmids of Escherichia coli isolated from poultry, chicken meat and humans supports the occurrence of food-borne transmission of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes. ESBL-producing E. coli (ESBL-E. coli) are most frequently detected in hospitalised patients and are known to spread in healthcare settings. We hypothesised that poultry-associated (PA) ESBL genes are predominant in the community, where acquisition is fuelled by food … Show more

“…The predominant resistance gene reported in the present study is bla CTX-M-1 . The high abundance of this gene is consistent with studies on isolates from humans and farm animals in the Netherlands, in which bla CTX-M-1 is either the most or second most predominant gene (Dierikx et al, 2012a; Voets et al, 2012; Hordijk et al, 2013; Platteel et al, 2013). However, more data on plasmids and host bacteria are required to draw any conclusions on genetic relatedness and possible transmission to or from either humans or food-producing animals.…”
