“…Some Gram-negative spoilage bacteria, including Pseudomonas spp. and Serratia marcescens, have exhibited high intrinsic resistance and survival after exposure to QACs [124][125][126][127]. Food-associated moulds and yeasts exhibit variable resistance among species and among strains within species; some isolates were resistant to typical QAC concentrations [128,129].…”

Potential Impact of Increased Use of Biocides in Consumer Products on Prevalence of Antibiotic Resistance

There has recently been much controversy surrounding the increased use of antibacterial substances in a wide range of consumer products and the possibility that, as with antibiotics, indiscriminate use of biocides might contribute to the overall pattern of susceptibility in the general environment and in the clinic. Such speculation, based on the isolation of resistant mutants from in vitro monoculture experiments, is not reflected by an emergence of biocide-resistant strains in vivo. This review provides a broad coverage of the biocide and resistance literature and evaluates the potential risks, perceived from such laboratory monoculture experiments, against evidence gathered over 50 years of field studies. An explanation for the continued effectiveness of broad-spectrum biocidal agents against the decline in efficacy of therapeutic agents is provided based on the fitness costs of resistance and the ubiquity of naturally occurring substances that possess antibacterial effect. While we conclude from this review of the literature that the incorporation of antibacterial agents into a widening sphere of personal products has had little or no impact on the patterns of microbial susceptibility observed in the environment, the associated risks remain finite. The use of such products should therefore be associated with a clear demonstration of added value either to consumer health or to the product life. Hygienic products should therefore be targeted to applications for which the risks have been established

“…Relatively little information has been published thus far about the occurrence of QAC-resistant Gram-negative bacteria in the food industry and pathogens related to food. Willingham et al (1996) tested 350 bacterial chicken isolates in relation to their resistance to QAC, phenol and glutaraldehyde. They determined that ca 1% of strains were resistant to QACbased disinfectants (especially Enterobacter and Serratia spp.).…”

Bacteria of the genus Arcobacter are today feared pathogens and represent a true threat, particularly in the form of alimentary infections. This study presents information on the inhibitory concentrations of selected disinfectant agents frequently applied in the Czech Republic, and particularly in the food industry for sanitation. The results of the study indicate that total inactivation of tested arcobacters are mostly at concentration of 5.0-15.0% in case of Desprej-disinfectant, 10.0-15.0% in case of Incidur-disinfectant, respectively 1.0-15.0% Guaa Profi Pool-disinfectant. Nevertheless, it has been confirmed that there is a real risk for secondary resistance of arcobacters to emerge in relation to certain decontaminants. Through repeated passages of arcobacters in a medium with low concentration of the disinfectant, we increased their primary resistance to the Incidur disinfectant to 1.5-3.5x (depending on species or origin). In the case of Desprej, the primary resistance of arcobacters to the substance was increased to even 1.5-5x. The emergence of resistance to antimicrobial substances is a worldwide problem. Potential acquisition of resistance (secondary resistance) in case of Arcobacter spp. was confirmed in this study for the first time in the Czech Republic.
