Article Abstract
serovar Kentucky (. Kentucky) with sequence type (ST) 198 and highly resistant to ciprofloxacin (ST198-Cip ) has emerged as a global MDR clone, posing a threat to public health. In the present study, whole genome sequencing (WGS) was applied to characterize all Cip Kentucky detected in five Spanish hospitals during 2009-2018. All Cip isolates ( = 13) were ST198 and carried point mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of both (resulting in Ser83Phe and Asp87Gly, Asp87Asn, or Asp87Tyr substitutions in GyrA) and (with Thr57Ser and Ser80Ile substitutions in ParC). Resistances to other antibiotics (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, streptomycin, sulfonamides, and tetracycline), mediated by the , , , , , and (A) genes, and arranged in different combinations, were also observed. Analysis of the genetic environment of the latter resistance genes revealed the presence of multiple variants of SGI1 ( genomic island 1)-K and SGI1-P, where all these resistance genes except were placed. IS elements, found at multiple locations within the SGI1 variants, have probably played a crucial role in their generation. Despite the wide diversity of SGI1-K- and SGI1-P-like structures, phylogenetic analysis revealed a close relationship between isolates from different hospitals, which were separated by a minimum of two and a maximum of 160 single nucleotide polymorphisms. Considering that isolates resistant to fluoroquinolones belong to the high priority list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria compiled by the World Health Organization, continuous surveillance of the . Kentucky ST198-CIP clone is required.

Conjugation is a complex phenomenon involving multiple plasmid, bacterial, and environmental factors. Here we describe an IncI1 plasmid encoding multidrug antibiotic resistance to aminoglycosides, sulfonamides, and third generation cephalosporins. This plasmid is widespread geographically and among One Health animal, human, and environmental sectors.

Human salmonellosis is a high-priority foodborne disease worldwide. The main reservoir of is livestock, mainly swine and poultry that are infected both by generalist serovars and serovars adapted to them. The most widespread livestock-adapted serovars are attenuated in both their primary hosts and humans.

Article Synopsis
- This study examines how different Salmonella serovars survive when exposed to organic acid antimicrobials on raw pork meat, focusing on lactic acid (LA) and peracetic acid (PAA).
- The research found that both the type of Salmonella serovar and the concentration of antimicrobials significantly influenced survival rates, with PAA at 400 ppm being the most effective in reducing Salmonella levels.
- Specifically, S. Dublin was found to be more susceptible to PAA treatments, while S. Newport showed a higher resistance, highlighting the importance of understanding serovar behavior for better pathogen control in the meat industry.

This longitudinal study characterized Salmonella circulating in lymph nodes (LN, n = 800) and beef trimmings (n = 745) from slaughter cattle from a Mexican feedlot. During two years, LN and beef trimming samples were collected 72-96 h post-slaughter, and we obtained 77 isolates of the serovars Anatum (n = 23), Reading (n = 22), Typhimurium (n = 10), London (n = 9), Kentucky (n = 6), Fresno (n = 4), Give, Muenster, and monophasic 1,4,[5],12:i- (n = 1 each). These isolates were subjected to whole genome sequencing, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based phylogenetic analysis, reconstruction of their ancestral isolation sources through evolutionary analysis, and virulence profiling.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) considered as global crisis facing poultry industry. Migratory birds play very important role in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistant pathogen during their fly way specially to poultry farms. Therefore, 750 samples from migratory birds and 300 samples from broiler chicken farms and its environment were collected during the winter seasons of five years (2019 to 2023).
