Prevalence of β-Lactamase Producing Escherichia coli from Retail Meat in Turkey.
Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamase (pAmpC) producing Escherichia coli have been shown to be present in humans and animals representing a significant problem worldwide. This study aimed to search the presence of ESBL and/or AmpC-producing E. coli in retail meats (chicken and beef) in Turkey. A total of 88 β-lactamase-producing E. coli were isolated from chicken (n = 81/100) and beef meat (n = 7/100) samples and their susceptibility to several antimicrobials were tested using disc diffusion method. E. coli isolates were further characterized for their phylogenetic groups. β-Lactamase encoding (blaTEM , blaSHV , blaOXA , blaCTX-M , and blaAmpC ) and quinolone resistance genes (qnrA, qnrB, qnrS, qepA, and acc(6')-Ib-cr) were also secreened by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). However, in regard to β-lactamase genes, 84 of 88 isolates were positive for blaCTX-M-1 (n = 39), blaCTX-M-3 (n = 5), blaCTX-M-15 (n = 4), blaTEM-1b (n = 2), blaSHV-12 (n = 1), blaCTX-M-1 /blaTEM-1b (n = 10), blaCTX-M-1 /blaTEM-1b /blaSHV-5 (n = 1), blaCTX-M-1 /blaCMY-2 (n = 1) and blaTEM-1b /blaCMY-2 (n = 6), blaCTX-M-15 /blaSHV-12 (n = 1), blaCTX-M-15 /blaTEM-1b (n = 1), blaTEM-1b /blaSHV-12 (n = 1), and blaCMY-2 (n = 12) genes. Resistance to cefuroxime (75.6% and 85.7%), nalidixic acid (89% and 85.7%), tetracycline (91.4% and 100%), streptomycin (40.2% and 100%), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (36.6% and 85.7%) was observed among strains isolated from chicken and beef, respectively. However, all isolates were found to be susceptible to amikacin, imipenem, and cefepime. Resistance to ampicillin and cefoxitin was significantly linked to blaCMY-2 gene, while there was a significant correlation between CTX-M type ESBL and antimicrobial resistance to cefuroxime and streptomycin (P < 0.05). The results of this study suggest that raw chicken retail meats are highly contaminated with ESBL-producing E. coli implementing a great risk to human health in Turkey.

High prevalence of bla(CTX-M-14) among genetically diverse Escherichia coli recovered from retail raw chicken meat portions in Japan.
Global widespread of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae, especially Escherichia coli poses a greater threat in healthcare and community settings of humans. Raw meats from food animals colonized with ESBL producers may be one of important transmission routes for those bacteria in the community. This study investigated the presence of ESBL-producing E. coli in retail raw chicken and pork meats in Japan. ESBL producers were detected from the 59 of 150 (39.3%) chicken samples, but none were from all the 50 pork samples tested. The blaCTX-M-14 (17; 24.3%) was most frequently identified, followed by blaCTX-M-2 (16; 22.9%), blaSHV-12 (11; 15.7%), and blaCTX-M-55 (10; 14.3%) among a total of 70 ESBL-producing E. coli isolates from 59 chicken samples. The isolates with blaCTX-M-14 were often combined with phylogroup B1 (9/17) mainly composed of ST162 (7/9), and phylogroup F (5/17) with diverse STs. The blaCTX-M-14 was basically associated with the common elements ISEcp1 and ΔIS903 or IS903 in all 17 isolates. In 6 isolates, comprising 5 phylogroup B1-ST162 and a nontypeable-ST162 isolates, an IS26-truncated ISEcp1 was identified upstream of the blaCTX-M-14, and a fosA3 was further located downstream of ΔIS903. Furthermore, some mobile genetic elements mediating blaCTX-M-14 unique to raw chicken meat portions were identified. The blaCTX-M-2 gene was preceded by ISEcp1 or ISCR1 in 16 isolates, whereas the presence of Δorf3 downstream of blaCTX-M-2 was limited only in 6 isolates from Brazilian samples though they exhibited diverse phylogroups and STs. The blaCTX-M-55 and blaCTX-M-1 shared classical flanking structures, ISEcp1-blaCTX-M-orf477, although the length of spacer sequences between ISEcp1 and the start codon of blaCTX-M was 45 bp and 80 bp for blaCTX-M-55 and blaCTX-M-1, respectively. Among blaSHV-12-harboring isolates, ST38 was frequently detected (6/11) though their phylogroup distribution varied. In conclusion, besides transmission of bla gene-harboring E. coli lineages which have adaptability to both human and chicken, spread of mobile genetic elements associated with bla genes from E. coli lineages adapted to chicken to those adapted to human is highly suggested. Our results provide important information to gain a better understanding of the transmission risk of bla genes from retail chicken meats to human.

High prevalence of mcr-1 encoding colistin resistance and first identification of bla(CTX-M-55) in ESBL/CMY-2-producing Escherichia coli isolated from chicken faeces and retail meat in Tunisia.
Avian industries have been reported as an important contributor in the worldwide spread of antibiotic resistance owing to some particular practices especially the overuse of antibiotics. Thus in this study, we aimed to characterize extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL) and acquired-AmpC-beta-lactamase (aAmpC)-producing Escherichia coli isolates from chicken faeces and raw meat in Tunisia. During the year 2018, 286 faecal chicken swabs and 47 raw chicken meat samples were collected and processed to recover cefotaxime-resistant E. coli. Antimicrobial susceptibility was performed by disk-diffusion and/or broth-microdilution. blaTEM, blaSHV, blaCTX-M, and blaCMY genes were investigated by PCR/sequencing. Genes encoding resistance to colistin (mcr-1 to mcr-8), tetracycline (tetA/tetB), sulfonamide (sul1/sul3), and chloramphenicol (cmlA), were analysed by PCR. Class 1 integrons were investigated by PCR/sequencing. Phylogenetic groups of all isolates were determined. PFGE and MLST were performed for representative isolates. PCR-based replicon typing was performed in mcr1-harbouring isolates. Cefotaxime-resistant E. coli was detected in 22.4% (64/286) and 63.8% (30/47) of faeces and meat samples, respectively. Ninety isolates were ESBL-producers and harboured the genes: blaCTX-M-1 +/- blaTEM-1 (n = 65), blaCTX-M-55 +/- blaTEM-1 (n = 21), blaCTX-M-14 (n = 1), and blaSHV-12 (n = 3). The blaCMY-2 gene was detected in four ESBL-negative isolates. Isolates belonged to phylogroups D (50%), A (36.2%), B1 (9.6%), and B2 (4.3%). Fifty-four were colistin-resistant and 52 carried the mcr-1 gene. The tetA, sul1/sul3 and cmlA genes were detected among resistant isolates and 76 harboured class 1 integrons. MLST analysis revealed 13 sequence types (STs). The isolates were classified into 28 PFGE types. The IncP, IncFIB, and IncI1 replicons were detected among mcr-1-positive strains. We report a high frequency of ESBL-producers and colistin-resistant E. coli in chicken and derived food and the detection for the first time of blaCTX-M-55 in poultry in Tunisia.
