This study was carried out to investigate the antimicrobial resistance pattern and distribution of resistance gene in 44 Enterobacteriaceae and 21 Pseudomonas (P) aeruginosa isolated from hospitalized dogs and cats in animal hospital from 2010 to 2011 in Daegu. Among Enterobacteriaceae, Escherichia (E) coli was highly resistant to ampicillin (56.7%), followed by tetracycline (53.3%), cephalothin, streptomycine, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, gentamicin and norfloxacin (40.0~43.3%). The remaining isolates of Enterobacteriaceae had high resistance to ampicillin (64.3%) and streptomycin (42.9%). Whereas, P. aeruginosa was low resistant to all antimicrobials tested (less than 15%). int I 1 gene was detected in 20 (57.1%) of 35 antimicrobial resistant Enterobacteriaceae and 2 (9.5%) of 21 P. aeruginosa., but int I 2 gene was not detected in all isolates. The eight resistance genes were found either alone or combination with other gene (s): $bla_{TEM}$, aadA, strA-strB, clmA, tetA, tetB, sul I and sul II. About 78% of integron-positive isolates were resistance to more than four antimicrobial agents. The findings suggest that class I integrons are widely distributed in E. coli among Enterobacteriaceae from dogs and cats and multi-drug resistance related to the presence of class I integrons. The prudent use of antimicrobials and continuous monitoring for companion animals are required.

1978년(年)에 분리(分離)한 9주(株)의 Shigella, 70주(株)의 Salmonella paratyphi A 및 230주(株)의 S. typhi의 약제내성(藥劑耐性), 내성화방지(耐性化防止) 및 제거(除去)에 대(對)하여 실험(實驗)하여 다음과 같은 성적(成績)을 얻었다. Shigella는 79주(株)가 Sh. flexneri, 16주(株)가 Sh. sonnei였는데 1주(株)를 제외(除外)한 94주(株)가 chloramphenicol tetracycline, streptomycin, sulfisomidine에 다약제내성(多藥劑耐性)이었으며 그중(中) 70주(株)는 ampicillin과 carbenicillin에, 80주(株)는 trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole에, 22주(株)는 nalidixic acid에, 1주(株)는kanamycin에도 내성(耐性)이었다. Gentamicin, amikacin, cephaloridine, rifampin에 내성(耐性)인 균주(菌株)를 없었다. S. paratyphi A와 S. typhi는 공시약제(供試藥劑)에 감수성(感受性)이었으나 다만 rifampin, 또는 sulfisomidine에 약(弱)한 내성(耐性)을 가진 것이 있었다. 다약제내성(多藥劑耐性)인 shigella의 약(約) 80%가 전달성(傳達性) R plasmid를 가지고 있어서 그 내성(耐性)을 E. coli에 전달(傳達)시킬 수 있었다. 내성전달빈도(耐性傳達頻度)는 공시균주(供試菌株) 및 피전달균(被傳達菌)에 따라 차이(差異)가 있었다. 보존(保存)한 내성균주(耐性菌株)는 그 비율(比率)은 균주(菌株)에 따라 차이(差異)가 있으나 내성균(耐性菌)과 감수성균(感受性菌)으로 구성(構成)되어 있었으며 계대배양(繼代培養)에 의하여 내성(耐性)이 쉽게 탈락(脫落)되지는 안하였다. Acriflavine은 내성(耐性)을 탈락(脫落)시키는 효과(效果)는 있었으며 균주(菌株)에 따라 그 차이(差異)가 심(甚)하였고 atabrine은 효과(效果)가 없었다. 약제(藥劑)의 병용(倂用)은 Shigella에 대(對)한 작용(作用)을 증강(增强)시키는 경우(境遇)가 많으며 대체(大體)로 상승작용(相乘作用)을 나타냈고 상가작용(相加作用)을 나타내는 경우(境遇)가 있었으나 길항작용(拮抗作用)은 볼 수 없었다.

S. aureus는 자연계에 널리 상재해 있으며 우리나라의 경우 Salmonella spp.에 의한 식중독 다음으로 많이 발생하는 식중독의 원인균으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 상추와 원유로부터 분리한 S. aureus(n=86)의 표현형 및 유전형 특징을 파악할 목적으로 coagulase, hemolysin, enterotoxin 및 toxic shock syndrome toxin I 등에 대한 유전자를 대상으로 PCR 방생제 감수성 시험을 수행하여 그들 분리균주들의 항생제 내성정도를 결정하였다. 상추와 원유로부터 분리한 S. aureus 균주는 모두 coagulase 유전자를 보유하고 있었고, 또한 PCR 산물의 amplicon size는 500bp(2.4%), 580bp(17.4%), 660bp(61.6%), 740bp(17.4%) 및 820bp(1.2%)로 다섯 종류가 검출되었다. Hemolysin 유전자의 경우는 원유로부터 분리한 4개의 hld 유전자 보유균주를 제외하고 모든 분리균주에서 multiple hemolysin gene을 보유하였으며, 그 중 47개 균주(54.7%)가 hla/hld/hlg2 유전자를 모두 소유한 균주로서 가장 많은 분포를 나타내었다. 한편, enterotoxin 유전자를 소유한 S. aureus 분리균주는 37 균주(43.0%)로서 그중 32균주(37.2%)에서 sea 유전자가 검출되었고, 1균주(1.1%)에서 sed 유전자, 그리고 4균주(4.6%)에서 sea와 sed 유전자가 모두 검출되었으나, seb, sec 혹은 tsst-1 유전자는 검출되자 않았다. 그리고 항생제 감수성 시험 결과에서는 모든 균주가 ciprofloxacin, oxacillin, vancomycin 그리고 trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole에 대하여 감수성을 나타내었고 penicillin G(98.8%)는 높은 감수성을 보였으나 chloramphenicol(63%)과 erythromycin(59%)은 감수성이 낮았고, chloramphenicol, clindamycin, erythromycin 및 penicillin G에 대하여는 각각 4.7%, 82.6%, 14.0% 및 1.2%의 균주가 내성을 가지고 있었다. 또한 항생제 다제내성 양상을 살펴본 결과에 의하면 사용된 8종류의 항생물질들 중 2가지 항생물질에 대하여 내성을 나타낸 균주는 7개(8.1%)이고, 3종 이상의 항생물질에 대하여 다제 내성을 보이는 균주는 나타나지 않았다.

The aim of this study was to isolate microorganisms from half milk samples of dairy goats by California mastitis test (CMT) during the lactation period and to further investigate the susceptibility of isolated organisms to antimicrobial drugs. From a total of 235 half milk samples with CMT scores of 2 or above from 366 dairy goats distributed throughout Jeonnam province, microorganisms were isolated from 198 (83.5%) samples either singly (99.0%) or in combination (1.0%). The most prevalent microorganism was the coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp., (44.4%, n=88) followed by Staphylococcus aureus (24.2%, n=48), Escherichia coli (11.1%, n=22) and Streptococcus spp. (7.6%, n=15). Isolated bacteria also included Bacillus spp. (2.5%, n=5), Pseudomonas spp. (2.5%, n=5), Micrococcus spp. (1.5%, n=3), Corynebacterium spp. (1.5%, n=3), Enterococcus facium (1.0%, n=2), Morganella morganii (0.5%, n=1) and Streptococcus agalactiae (0.5%, n=1). During the summer season, a high prevalence of all microorganisms were observed in which Staphylococcus spp. (30.8%), Escherichia coli (8.6%), and Streptococcus spp. (5.6%) were among the most prevalent bacteria isolated. Staphylococcus spp. was also shown to be high in the winter (21.7%). In most samples, the presence of bacterial pathogens in goat milk led to the increase in the total somatic cell count (SCC). Most of the half milk samples of dairy goats with bacterial contamination showed SCC of ${\geq}1{\times}10^6cells/ml$ (90.4%). Minor pathogens (11.4%) were more detected from milk samples with SCC of < $1{\times}10^6cells/ml$ than major pathogens (4.1%), while the major pathogens tended to be higher from samples with SCC of ${\geq}3{\times}10^6cells/ml$. Susceptibility of these bacteria to 12 antimicrobial agents was tested by the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Results indicated that more than 90% of bacteria isolated from CMT 2+ dairy goat half milk samples were susceptible to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, amoxicillin/clavulanic, enrofloxacin and cephalothin while they were resistant to tetracycline (44.7%).

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of CTX-M β-lactamase and plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes, and the pattern of antibiotic resistance in cefotaxime-resistant gramnegative bacteria. A total 126 gram-negative bacteria were isolated from hospitalized dogs and cats between 2018 and 2019. The most predominant isolates were E. coli (n=41), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n=25), Proteus mirabilis (n=14), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n=9), Sphingomonas paucimobilis (n=7), and Enterobacter cloacae and Serratia marcescens (respectively, n=5). Cefotaxime-resistant isolates were identified in 26.2% (33 isolates) of 126 gram-negative bacteria. CTX-M type β-lactamase were found in 15 isolates (10 E. coli, 1 Ent, cloacae and 4 K. pneumoniae, respectively). Among the CTX-M producing gram-negative bacteria, CTX-M-1 and CTX-M-9 were detected in 10 (66.7%) and 5 (33.3%) isolates, respectively. While, CTX-M-2 and CTX-M-8 were not found. PMQR genes were detected in 12 (36.4%) isolates (4 E. coli, 2 Ent, cloacae and 6 K. pneumoniae, respectively), and the predominant PMQR gene was aac(6')-lb-cr (n=9), followed by qnrB (n=8) and qnrS (n=1) alone or in combination. qnrA and qepA were not found. Additionally, 9 (60%) of 12 PMQR positive isolates were co-existence with CTX-M-1 or CTX-M-9. CTX-M or PMQR producing isolates showed highly resistance to penicillins (100%), cephalosporins (100~66.7%), monobactams (72.2%), and non-β-lactam antibiotics (94.4~61.1%) such as quinolones, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline and gentamicin. These findings showed CTX-M-1, CTX-M-9, aac(6')-lb-cr and qnrB were highly prevalent in cefotaxime-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates from companion animals in our region. Moreover, PMQR genes were closely associated with CTX-M type β-lactamase.
