Research note: characteristics of bla and mcr-1 co-producing Escherichia coli from retail chicken meat.

Carbapenems and colistin are vital antimicrobials used to treat Enterobacteriaceae-caused infections. The present study aimed to characterize the coexistence mechanism of carbapenem and colistin resistance in an Escherichia coli isolated from retail chicken meat. A total of 4 E.

Prevalence and characterization of aminoglycoside resistance gene aph(2")-If-carrying Campylobacter jejuni.

Campylobacter jejuni is recognized as a significant foodborne pathogen, and recent studies have indicated a rising trend of aminoglycosides resistance gene aph(2″)-If among C. jejuni isolates from food-producing animals in China. However, systematic information about aph(2″)-If-positive C.
