Risk factors and spatial distribution of extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing- Escherichia coli at retail poultry meat markets in Malaysia: a cross-sectional study

Abstract: BackgroundThe significant role of retail poultry meat as an important exposure pathway for the acquisition and transmission of extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) into the human population warrants understanding concerning those operational practices associated with dissemination of ESBL-EC in poultry meat retailing. Hence, the objective of this study was to determine the prevalence, spatial distribution and potential risk factors associated with the dissemination of ESBL-EC in p… Show more

“…Some studies also established the relationship of poultry isolates from human isolates suggesting a potential zoonotic transmission [7]. This could be the result of faecal contamination of poultry meat during slaughter, processing, selling and cooking of poultry products [5, 17]. Moreover, the high prevalence of bla CTX-M-15 gene in this study has public health concern since it is the most widespread gene type of ESBL-EC in humans [18].…”

“…In Sweden 34.0% of broilers carried ESBL/AmpC β-lactamase-producing E. coli in their guts [ 65 ]. In Malaysia 48.8% of isolates which were recovered from retail poultry meat markets were ESBL-AmpC positive [ 66 ].…”

“…In this study, nine (50%) members of Enterobacteriaceae were isolated, but none of these Enterobacteriaceae harbored ESBLs. This is surprising because there have been numerous reports of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in food sources, especially poultry products (27-29). It is also known that resistant Enterobacteriaceae (i.e., salmonellosis) in food can be transmitted within the community (30, 31).…”
