“…The development of antimicrobial resistance in P. shigelloides is a matter of concern (Ekundayo et al, 2020). For example, P. shigelloides isolate from diseased T. sinensis exhibited resistance to aminoglycosides, amphenicols and tetracycline antimicrobials (Wu et al, 2004), P. shigelloides isolate from diseased Silurus asotus showed resistance to amphenicols and tetracycline antibiotics (Abdelhamed et al, 2018).…”

“…So far, several bacterial pathogens such as Aeromonas punctata, Aeromonas veronii, Enterobacter aerogenes and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia have been reported to cause this disease (Wu et al, 2000;Geng et al, 2006;Huang et al, 2010;Cao et al, 2017). Plesiomonas shigelloides is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterium which is widely distributed in freshwater (Khardori et al, 1988;Ekundayo et al, 2020), and its occurrence in clinical infections is usually found in warm waters especially in farming waters with temperatures of 25 to370C and pH values of 5 to 8 (Liu et al, 2015). However, little information is available on Plesiomonas shigelloides as a causal agent for enteritis in channel catfish.…”

Enteritis has resulted in large economic losses in channel catfish aquaculture. Yet only scarce information is available on Plesiomonas shigelloides as a causal agent for this disease. In this study, a virulent strain, temporarily named BD1, was isolated from diseased channel catfish suffering from enteritis, and was identified as P. shigelloides through molecular and phenotypic methods. A phylogenetic tree was also constructed to determine its taxonomic position. In addition, the BD1 isolate has developed multiple resistances to aminoglycosides, amphenicols, quinolones, tetracyclines and sulfonamides drugs for veterinary uses in aquaculture as revealed when screened against a range of common antibiotics. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of P. shigelloides as a potential pathogen of enteritis in channel catfish. * Antibiotics for aquaculture use (Ministry of Agriculture of China, 2013).

“…The discrepancy in the resistance level of E. coli may be the result of the environmental heterogeneity among bathing places. Hierarchical cluster techniques have been reported to compare antibiogram profiles' similarities and the antibiotic disturbance of pathogens [27,29]. Cluster analysis of antibiogram profiles revealed the difference of resistance phenotypes between the seawater and beach sand.…”

To determine the potential of the recreational marine environment as a dissemination vector of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms, the dissemination of antibiotic-resistant E. coli strains isolated from an urban coastal beach was studied. Sixty-nine and thirteen E. coli strains were isolated from the seawater and sand, respectively, in Fujiazhuang bathing beach, China. The average Antibacterial Resistance Index (ARI) value detected in the seawater is approximately three times that in beach sand. All the isolates from the sand were grouped into one cluster and only the isolates from the municipal sewage outlet were classified into three antibiogram clusters that were observed in the hetero-sites of the E. coli isolates. The E. coli strains with multiple antibiotic resistance (58% of total) were prevalent in the seawater, whereas the isolates from the sand were not detected with multiple antibiotic resistance. A significant association (p < 0.05) between all phenotypic and relative genotypic resistance profiles was observed in the isolates, except in the quinolones resistance genotype. The presence of a class 1 integron was significantly correlated with the resistance of E. coli to sulfonamides, streptomycin, and levofloxacin (p < 0.01). This study revealed that the municipal sewage discharge may impact the dissemination of antibiotic-resistant strains in the urban coastal beach, and that the class 1 integrons play an important role in mediating the resistance of E. coli to sulfonamide antibiotics.

“…Treatment for infection by Plesiomonas shigelloides generally consists of oral rehydration, while in severe cases, the use of antimicrobials such as norfloxacin, trimethoprim, azithromycin, ceftriaxone, or ciprofloxacin is recommended [36,50]. In recent years, the isolation of Plesiomonas from the aquatic environment showing resistance to several antimicrobials, many of which are used in the treatment of infections, has been reported; it has been pointed out that antimicrobial resistance is the product of contamination by human activities, which has become a serious threat to public health and to these reservoir environments [51][52][53].…”

Fish and fish products are considered a fundamental part of the human diet due to their high nutritional value. Food-borne diseases are considered a major public health challenge worldwide due to their incidence, associated mortality, and negative economic repercussions. Food safety is the guarantee that foods will not cause harm to the health of those who consume them, and it is a fundamental property of food quality. Food safety can be at risk of being lost at any stage of the food chain if the food is contaminated by pathogenic microorganisms. Many diverse bacteria are present in the environment and as part of the microbiota of food that can be transmitted to humans during the handling and consumption of food. Plesiomonas shigelloides has been mainly associated with outbreaks of gastrointestinal diseases due to the consumption of fish. This bacterium inhabits the environment and aquatic animals and is associated with the microbiota of fish such as tilapia, a fish of importance in fishing, aquaculture, commercialization, and consumption worldwide. The purpose of this document is to provide, through a bibliographic review of databases (Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, among others), a general informative perspective on food-borne diseases and, in particular, the consumption of fish and tilapia. Diseases derived from contamination by Plesiomonas shigelloides are included, and control and prevention actions and sanitary regulations for fishery products established in several countries around the world are discussed to promote the safety of foods of aquatic origin intended for human consumption and to protect public health.
