Routine Prophylactic Antimicrobial Use is Associated with Increased Phenotypic and Genotypic Resistance in Commensal Escherichia Coli Isolates Recovered from Healthy Fattening Pigs on Farms in Thailand
Microbial drug resistance(2018)
摘要
This study examined antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles in commensal Escherichia coli derived from healthy fattening pigs in Thai farms that used prophylactic antimicrobials (in-feed tiamulin fumarate and amoxicillin) [PAs], therapeutic antimicrobials (injectable enrofloxacin or gentamicin) [TAs], or no antimicrobials [NAs]. Commensal E. coli were used as a proxy for overall AMR on the farms. There was a high level of multidrug resistance in all three categories of farm, with isolates showing resistance to -lactams (amoxicillin, ampicillin, and piperacillin) and tetracyclines (tetracycline), and commonly possessing tetA, bla(TEM), and plasmid replicons FIB and F. On the other hand, isolates with an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase phenotype (ESBLP) and with resistance to aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, fluoroquinolones, nitrofurantoin, tiamulin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole were significantly more common among the PA farms (p<0.05) than in the other two farm categories. In the PA farms, ESBLP E. coli commonly contained the bla(CTX-M-1) group, bla(CTX-M-9) group, or both gene groups, and were shown to transfer bla(CTX-M) genes in a conjugation experiment. E. coli containing N, FIC and A/C replicons were found only in PA farms. In summary, although E. coli isolates from all farms contained a core set of resistance to -lactams and tetracyclines, the routine use of PA increased resistance rates to other important antimicrobials.
