Emergence of a Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacter hormaechei Clinical Isolate from Egypt Co-Harboring mcr-9 and bla_VIM-4

Microorganisms, 2020
This study describes the first full genomic sequence of an mcr-9 and blaVIM-4-carrying multidrug-resistant Enterobacter hormaechei clinical isolate from Egypt. The strain was isolated in April 2015 from the sputum of a patient in Cairo, Egypt.

Occurrence and spread of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) in the food chain in the EU/EFTA. Part 1: 2025 update

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) have been reported in the food chain in 14 out of 30 EU/EFTA countries. Commonly reported genes are blaVIM‐1, blaOXA‐48 and blaOXA‐181, followed by blaNDM‐5 and blaIMI‐1. Escherichia coli, target of most of the studies, Enterobacter cloacae complex, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex and Salmonella ...

Characterisation of Antimicrobial Resistance in Special‐Fed Veal Production Environments

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 75-83, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the leading public health threats globally. AMR genes can be transferred between bacteria through lateral gene transfer, and AMR organisms can spread through environments by contaminated water, agriculture and animals.

Integrated Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of an Mcr-10.1‐Harboring Multidrug Resistant Escherichia coli Strain From Migratory Birds in China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: The global rise in antibiotic resistance among multidrug resistant (MDR) Gram‐negative (GN) bacteria has posed significant health challenges, leading to the resurgence of colistin as a key defense against these bacteria. However, the widespread use of colistin has resulted in the rapid emergence of colistin resistance on a global scale. Ten

Genomic insights into multidrug-resistant Enterobacter hormaechei isolates from seafood at retail carrying the mcr-9 gene and other resistance determinants on IncHI2 plasmids

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
: Objectives: We aimed to characterise the genomic features of two multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates from retail seafood samples. Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests.

Co-spread of metal and antibiotic resistance within ST3-IncHI2 plasmids from E. coli isolates of food-producing animals

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractConcerns have been raised in recent years regarding co-selection for antibiotic resistance among bacteria exposed to heavy metals, particularly copper and zinc, used as growth promoters for some livestock species. In this study, 25 IncHI2 plasmids harboring oqxAB (20/25)/blaCTX-M (18/25) were found with sizes ranging from ∼260 to ∼350 kb and 22

New insights on mcr-1-harboring plasmids from human clinical Escherichia coli isolates.

PLoS ONE
Mobile colistin resistance (mcr) genes were described recently in Gram-negative bacteria including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales. There are ten mcr genes described in different Gram-negative bacteria, however, Escherichia coli harboring mcr-1 ...

Clonal expansion of chromosome-borne CTX-M-55 extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Agona, Taiwan

Microbiology Spectrum
We investigated emerging multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella enterica serovar Agona in Taiwan. These MDR strains commonly harbored the efflux pump activator gene ramAp and up to 15 resistance genes, including aac (3)-IId, aadA22, aph(3')-Ia, aph (6)-Id,
