Genomic dissection of travel-associated extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producing Salmonella enterica serovar typhi isolates originating from the Philippines: a one-off occurrence or a threat to effective treatment of typhoid fever?

Article Synopsis
- One case of extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi was identified and analyzed through whole-genome sequencing.
- The strain showed similarities to an existing strain with the blaSHV-12 gene from the Philippines.
- This finding suggests that the strain may be part of an undiscovered outbreak, marking the first instance of ESBL-producing S. Typhi.
Salmonella enterica serovar Stanley (S. Stanley) is a common serovar in Southeast Asia and was the second most common serovar implicated in human salmonellosis in Thailand in the years 2002 to 2007. In contrast, this serovar is relatively uncommon in Europe.

The objective of this study was to characterize extended-spectrum cephalosporinase (ESC)-producing isolates of Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis recovered from patients in Thailand and Denmark. Twenty-four blood culture isolates from 22 patients were included in the study, of which 23 isolates were recovered from 21 Thai patients during 2003, 2007, or 2008 and one isolate was recovered from a Danish traveler to Thailand. ESC production was confirmed in 13 out of the 24 isolates by MIC testing.
