Background and Objectives: Salmonella spp. are important zoonotic pathogens in humans and
animals which cause salmonellosis. Use of uncontrolled antimicrobial agents in human and
animal have been increased drug resistance in the different serotypes of Salmonella. The aim of
this study was determining antibiotic resistant patterns and detection of ESBL producing
isolates of Salmonellaespp. Isolated from different sources including human, poultry and cattle.
Materials and Methods: A total of 70 salmonellaisolates which obtained from Microbial Type
Culture Collection of Microbiology department of Razi institute, Karaj-Iran, were subjected to
determine of susceptibility testing to 30 antimicrobial agents. Phenotypic identification for
ESBL producing isolates were analyzed by combined disk test (CT) according to CLSI
guidelines. Genotypic characterization of isolates was performed by PCR based on bla
SHVgene.
Results: (84.3%) of the Salmonellaisolates were resistant to more than one antimicrobial agent.
Thirty-two (45.7%) isolates was found to be multi-drug resistant (MDR) isolates that two of
them were resistant to 13 antibiotics. The most common resistance to antibiotics was to
cephalexin followed by to nitrofuratoin and tetracycline. No resistance was observed for
amikacin, oflaxacin, enrofloxacin, cefotizoxim, cefotaxime, and imipenem.
The results revealed that 10 isolates (14.3%) were ESBL producing isolates by combined disk
test while only 6 isolates(8.6%) harbored the bla
SHVgene.
Conclusion:The results of this study showed the presence of resistance gene of bla
SHV in
different Salmonellaspp. Isolated from livestock and poultry in Iran. Therefore the continuing
monitoring and identification of ESBL producing isolates of Salmonella in the community is
essential.
