“…The low level of resistant Y. enterocolitica against imipinem, gentamycin, piperacillin, chloramphenicol, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, aztreonam and trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole could be because of their infrequent use in animal production (Henton et al 2011 ). Similar prevalence of resistance to antimicrobial agents has been reported for Y. enterocolitica strains recovered from food-producing animals in other countries (Li et al 2018 ; Sharifi et al 2011 ; Ye et al 2015 ).…”

Yersinia enterocolitica infections impose a significant public health and socioeconomic burden on human population in many countries. The current study investigated the prevalence, antimicrobial resistance profile and molecular diversity of Y. enterocolitica in meat and meat products across various retail outlets in selected provinces of South Africa (SA). In a cross-sectional study, a total of 581 retail meat and meat products were collected from four cities across three provinces of SA. Samples were from beef and pork products, which included 292 raw intact, 167 raw processed, and 122 ready-to-eat (RTE) meats. Samples were analysed using classical microbiological methods for isolation, identification and biotyping of Y. enterocolitica. Conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed for confirmation, serotyping, screening of virulence (n = 11) and antimicrobial resistance (n = 18) genes. Phenotypic antimicrobial resistance profiles were determined against 12 antibiotics discs, using disc diffusion method. The overall prevalence of 12% (70/581) was reported across all cities with contamination proportion reported in samples collected from raw intact 15% (43/292), followed by raw processed 11% (18/167) and RTE meats 7% (9/122). All positive isolates were of biotype 1A with 7% (5/70) belonging to bioserotype 1A/O:8. Most of the isolates harboured ymoA, ystB, fepD, ail, fepA, invA and myfA virulence genes. High antimicrobial resistance frequency was observed for ampicillin (94%), cephalothin (83%) and amoxicillin (41%), respectively. Of the 18 tested antimicrobial resistance genes, blaTEM was the most predominant (40%) followed by cmlA (21%). This study reveals the presence of antimicrobial resistant Y. enterocolitica possessing virulent genes of public health importance in products of animal origin, therefore, health monitoring and surveillance of this pathogen is required.

Identification and molecular analysis of Yersinia enterocolitica isolated from fresh raw chicken meat samples. A total of 114 chicken meat samples were collected randomly from different chicken shops in the Kafr El-Sheikh city and examined by culturing and PCR methods. Twenty isolates out of 114 fresh raw chicken meat samples (17.5%) were found to be positive for Y. enterocolitica. Out of 57 chicken breast muscle samples 12 were positive (10.5% ) and in the same time only 8 positive samples detected in 57 chicken thigh muscle samples (7%) for isolation of Y. enterocolitica. A PCR-based assay was developed to detect the prevalence of Y. enterocolitica in chicken meat samples and to evaluate plasmid-and chromosome-borne virulence genes. The result of PCR examination revealed that, only 8 isolates out of 12 randomly selected isolates (66.6%) were positive by the specific gene of Y. enterocolitica (16S ribosomal RNA ). The results of detection of the virulence genes (ail, ystA and virF) were 75%, 50% and 37.5% respectively. These virulence genes were not detected in 2 examined isolates. The yadA gene was not detected in any of the 8 examined isolates by multiplex PCR technique. This study highlighted the importance of chicken meat as potential sources of pathogenic Y. enterocolitica.
