“…In Africa, only 6 countries presented reports of E-ESBL in cattle. They were Egypt, Madagascar, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania and Tunisia (Braun et al, 2016;Gay et al, 2018;Iweriebor et al, 2015;Mkala and Azizi, 2017;Olowe et al, 2015;Saidani et al, 2018;Seni et al, 2016). There are not numerous nor descriptive reports on this continent.…”

Food producing animal is a global challenge in terms of antimicrobial resistance spread. Extended-spectrum betalactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are relevant opportunistic pathogens that may spread in many ecological niches of the One Health approach as human, animal and environment due to intestinal selection of antimicrobial resistant commensals in food production animals. Cattle production is a relevant ecological niche for selection of commensal bacteria with antimicrobial resistance from microbiota. Enterobacteriaceae show importance in terms of circulation of resistant-bacteria and antimicrobial resistance genes via food chain creating a resistance reservoir, setting up a threat for colonization of humans and consequent health risk. ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae are a threat in terms of human health responsible for life threatening outbreaks and silent enteric colonization of community populations namely the elder population. Food associated colonization is a risk difficult to handle and control. In a time of globalization of food trading, population intestinal colonization is a mirror of food production and in that sense this work aims to make a picture of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in animal production for food over the world in order to make some light in this reality of selection of resistant threats in food producing animal.

“…Diarrheal diseases are a major problem worldwide caused by bacterial pathogens particularly in developing countries [2,3]. The enteropathogenic Escherichia coli affecting humans are categorized into Shiga toxinproducing E. coli (STEC), enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC); enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), entero-toxigenic E. coli (ETEC), diffusely adherent E. coli (DAEC), and enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) including the Shigella and Salmonella species are common bacteria that causes diarrhea [1,2,4,5].…”

“…Antibiotics are drugs that kill and prevent the multiplication or growth of microbes. They are the most common antimicrobial agents prescribed in hospitals worldwide [1,6,7,8,9]. The use of similar or identical antibiotics in humans has come under increasing scrutiny by regulators concerned that bacteria resistant to animal antibiotics will infect people and resist treatment with similar human antibiotics, leading to excess illnesses and deaths.…”

“…The use of similar or identical antibiotics in humans has come under increasing scrutiny by regulators concerned that bacteria resistant to animal antibiotics will infect people and resist treatment with similar human antibiotics, leading to excess illnesses and deaths. Scientists, regulators, and interest groups in the United States and Europe have urged bans on non-therapeutic and some therapeutic uses of animal antibiotics to protect human health [1,10].…”

Background: Enterobacteriaceae is among the large group of gram-negative rod bacteria in which it comprises Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and many other species whose natural habitat is the intestinal tract of humans and animals. Diarrheal diseases are a major problem worldwide caused by bacterial pathogens particularly in developing countries. A previous study reported a prevalence of 9.30% Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases (ESBLs) producing Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 that revealed a high (100%) resistance to gentamicin, tetracycline, trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole, and amoxicillin/ clavulanic acid. Methods: A laboratory-based cross-sectional study was conducted at BMH. A convenient sampling method was used to enroll 308 patients with diarrhea in the study after consent for 12 months. Stool samples were collected into an acceptable clean sterile stool container and transported to Microbiology department for investigation. Analysis of data was performed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17.0. Results: Out of 308 participants, 61.0% (188) were female whereas 39.0% (120) were male. The age group of between 18 to 45 years had a larger number of participants recruited in study 257 (83.4%) and less number 4 (1.2%) in the age group above 60 years old. About 5.2 (16/308) percent of stool samples processed were positive with pathogenic bacteria whereas 94.8 (292/308) percent were negative (no pathogenic bacteria isolated) growth. The study presented two pathogenic bacteria species named E. coli strain O157:H7 and Salmonella typhi that were isolated from stool samples of patients with diarrhea and who attended the hospital for treatment. No any shigella species was isolated in the study. The prevalence of S. typhi was 3.2% (10/308) whereas E. coli strain O157:H7 was 1.9% (6/308) out of 308 stool samples processed. The in vitro drug resistance patterns of Ampicillin were observed to be high 9 (90%) followed by Amoxicillin/Clavulanate and tetracycline of which both had 6 (60%) resistance to S. typhi. Conclusion: The study is currently insisting laboratory practitioners carry out an investigation of Escherichia coli strain O157:H7 as a routine test in parallel with other enteric pathogens.
