“…It is remarkable that the high level of resistance observed in poultry-origin isolates for both antimicrobials are commonly used in poultry medicine, such as ampicillin (76.5%), doxycycline (56.3%), sulfisoxazole (77.3%), or ciprofloxacin (77.3%) (Miranda et al, 2008b;Van den Boogard et al, 2001) and also for antimicrobials that are rarely used in poultry medicine, such as chloramphenicol (58%). This high level of chloramphenicol-resistance of poultry-origin E. coli are in agreement with the chloramphenicol-resistance found in E. coli isolates from Mexico in the urban environments (33-53%) (Rosas et al, 2006) or in faecal samples of Mexican healthy volunteers (45-75%) (Nys et al, 2004).…”

“…In recent decades, there has been an increase in bacterial antibiotic resistance, especially in the developing countries (Nys, Okeke, Kariuki, Dinant, Driessen, & Stobberingh, 2004). Contrary to the developed nations, where most antimicrobial prescriptions are in the hands of the medical community (Phillips et al, 2003), in developing nations it is a common practice for the patients and the farmers to obtain the antibiotics directly from a pharmacist without a medical prescription.…”

The presence of Escherichia coli in foods taken from the grocery stores and the supermarkets in Hidalgo State (Mexico) was determined for 73 samples of poultry meat, 60 samples of pork, 86 samples of beef, and 66 samples of vegetables. A total of 352 E. coli strains were isolated, identified, and analyzed by an agar disk diffusion assay for their resistance to 10 antimicrobials. Poultry meat and vegetables taken from groceries showed significantly higher counts (P ¼ 0.0002 and P ¼ 0.0461, respectively) when compared with the samples taken from supermarkets. Compared with the isolates recovered from other foods, E. coli isolated from chicken meat had higher levels of antimicrobial resistance against all antimicrobials tested, with the exceptions of nitrofurantoin resistance of isolates from pork and streptomycin resistance in isolates from pork and beef. In addition, the E. coli isolates from samples taken from the groceries showed higher resistance rates than the isolates from samples taken from the supermarkets for the cases of pork isolates resistance to ampicillin (P ¼ 0.0497), chloramphenicol (P ¼ 0.0075), doxycycline (P ¼ 0.002), and streptomycin (P ¼ 0.0094) and beef isolates resistance against ampicillin (P ¼ 0.0048), streptomycin (P ¼ 0.002), and sulfisoxazole (P ¼ 0.003). The present study revealed that the observed resistance rates correlated well with those reported in the national surveillance programmes of developed countries, with the exception of isolates from chicken meat, which have higher resistance rates. Also, from a microbiological safety point of view, samples taken from supermarkets were in a much better conditions than those obtained from the groceries.Keywords: E. coli; antimicrobial; food-borne; resistance; Me´xico La presencia de Escherichia coli fue investigada en 73 muestras de carne de pollo, 60 muestras de carne de cerdo, 86 muestras de carne de vacuno y 66 muestras de alimentos vegetales muestreados en pequen˜os ultramarinos y supermercados en el estado de Hidalgo (Me´xico).

Objective: Antibiotic resistance has turned into a global public health problem in all over the world. Intestinal flora bacteria perform many important functions for human health. As a member of microbiota Escherichia coli cause many infections. This study was aimed to determine antibiotic susceptibility of microbiota member E. coli isolates against to the antibiotics that used in treatment. Methods:One hundred and fifty stool samples, which were sent to Kırıkkale Yüksek İhtisas Hospital microbiology laboratory in a period of between March to December 2013 to study fecal occult blood test and were determined as "negative", were included in this study. E. coli isolates were performed antibiotic susceptibility test by the Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method according to the recommendations of the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).Results: A total of 70 out of 150 E. coli isolates were sensitive to all antibiotics that used in the study. Twenty four (16%) isolates were found to be ESBL producers. All isolates were found sensitive to carbapenems. Conclusion:It was reached the conclusion that monitoring to resistance profiles of microbiota member E. coli isolates, especially in specific group patients in addition to infection agents, is important for giving direction to empirical therapy.

“…A logical approach to providing accurate prophylaxis is to identify the patients that are harboring the resistant bacteria by culturing rectal swabs prior to the biopsy. Previous studies investigating the prevalence of quinolone-resistant organisms by using rectal swabs or fecal specimens have mainly used solid media containing low levels of a fluoroquinolone (1,9,11). The aim of this study was to develop a laboratory method to identify patients undergoing a transrectal biopsy colonized with even small numbers of E. coli organisms resistant to the fluoroquinolones.…”

Antibiotic resistance of faecal Escherichia coli from healthy volunteers from eight developing countries

Abstract: In the populations studied, antibiotic resistance in faecal E. coli from adult volunteers was emerging for cefazolin, gentamicin and ciprofloxacin and was high for the older drugs ampicillin, oxytetracycline, trimethoprim and chloramphenicol.
