Dissemination of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacteriaceae and associated resistance determinants through global food systems

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2706-2727, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Antimicrobial agents are a critical component of modern healthcare systems, fulfilling a core function in patient care and improving individual patient outcomes and consequently overall public health. However, the efficacy of antimicrobial interventions is being consistently eroded by the emergence and dissemination of various antimicrobial ...

Salmonella Heidelberg and Salmonella Minnesota in Brazilian broilers: Genomic characterization of third‐generation cephalosporin and fluoroquinolone‐resistant strains

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 119-128, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Salmonella serovars Heidelberg and Minnesota encoding antimicrobial resistance to third‐generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones are often detected in poultry/poultry meat. We analysed the genomes of 10 Salmonella Heidelberg (SH) and 4 Salmonella Minnesota (SM) from faecal isolates of Brazilian poultry.

Transmission of Similar Mcr-1 Carrying Plasmids among Different Escherichia coli Lineages Isolated from Livestock and the Farmer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Colistin use has mostly been stopped in human medicine, due to its toxicity. However, nowadays, it still is used as a last-resort antibiotic to treat hospital infections caused by multi-drug resistant Enterobacteriaceae.

Phylogenomics, epigenomics, virulome and mobilome of Gram‐negative bacteria co‐resistant to carbapenems and polymyxins: a One Health systematic review and meta‐analyses

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1518-1542, March 2022., 2022
Summary Gram‐negative bacteria (GNB) continue to develop resistance against important antibiotics including last‐resort ones such as carbapenems and polymyxins. An analysis of GNB with co‐resistance to carbapenems and polymyxins from a One Health perspective is presented.

Role played by the environment in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through the food chain

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2021., 2021
Abstract The role of food‐producing environments in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in EU plant‐based food production, terrestrial animals (poultry, cattle and pigs) and aquaculture was assessed. Among the various sources and transmission routes identified, fertilisers of faecal origin, irrigation and surface water for plant ...

WGS Analysis of Clonal and Plasmidic Epidemiology of Colistin-Resistance Mediated by mcr Genes in the Poultry Sector in Lebanon

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Poultry and poultry meat are important contributors to the global antimicrobial burden. Unregulated and illegal use of extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESC) in this sector has long been identified as a major cause of massive spread of ESC-resistant ...

Comprehensive Genomic Investigation of Coevolution of mcr genes in Escherichia coli Strains via Nanopore Sequencing

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
The evolutionary trajectory of mobile colistin resistance genes and the underlying genomic basis in bacteria are largely unknown after withdrawal of colistin from animal feed additives. This study comprehensively deciphers the genomic landscape after the elimination of mcr genes during bacterial growth under different conditions, highlighting the ...

Global phylogenetic analysis of Escherichia coli and plasmids carrying the mcr-1 gene indicates bacterial diversity but plasmid restriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To understand the dynamics behind the worldwide spread of the mcr-1 gene, we determined the population structure of Escherichia coli and of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) carrying the mcr-1 gene. After a systematic review of the literature we included 65

Detection of mcr-1 encoding plasmid-mediated colistin-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from human bloodstream infection and imported chicken meat, Denmark 2015 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The plasmid-mediated colistin resistance gene, mcr-1, was detected in an Escherichia coli isolate from a Danish patient with bloodstream infection and in five E. coli isolates from imported chicken meat.
