The Occurrence and Genomic Characteristics of mcr-1-Harboring Salmonella from Retail Meats and Eggs in Qingdao, China. Foods 2022; 11:foods11233854. [PMID: 36496661 PMCID: PMC9739812 DOI: 10.3390/foods11233854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 11/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Salmonella are widely distributed foodborne pathogens and are often associated with food animal products. Colistin resistance mediated by mcr-1 is an increasing threat; however, data on the characteristics of mcr-1-harboring Salmonella among retail foods are still lacking. In this study, retail meats from 24 supermarkets and eggs from nine markets in Qingdao city were investigated to determine the presence and genomic characteristics of mcr-1-harboring Salmonella. We found the retail meats and eggs were highly contaminated by Salmonella, with detection rates of 17.5% (31/177) and 12.3% (16/130), respectively. A total of 76 Salmonella isolates were obtained in this study, and 77.6% showed multidrug resistance (MDR). The MDR proportion of egg isolates (97.5%) was significantly higher than that in meat isolates (55.6%) (p < 0.05). The most prevalent Salmonella serotypes were Typhimurium (56.6%) and Enteritidis (17.1%). Of the 76 Salmonella isolates, 40 possessed mcr-1. All 40 mcr-1-positive isolates were ST34 S. Typhimurium and were from eggs of eight brands. Different mcr-1-harboring isolates existed in the same egg, and some isolates from different egg samples or brands showed clonal relationships. The mcr-1 was located on similar IncHI2/HI2A MDR non-conjugative plasmids lacking transfer region, resulting in the failure of conjugation. The phylogenetic tree using genome sequences showed that the mcr-1-positive isolates from eggs clustered together with mcr-1-positive isolates from chicken and humans in China, revealing that mcr-1-positive egg-borne Salmonella might be derived from chicken and could potentially trigger outbreaks in humans. The high occurrence of mcr-1-harboring Salmonella in fresh eggs is alarming, and there is an urgent need to monitor mcr-1-harboring Salmonella in retail meats and eggs. We report for the first time the role of retail eggs in disseminating mcr-1-positive Salmonella and the risk of transmission of these MDR pathogens from retail food to humans should be evaluated comprehensively.

Antibiotic Resistance of Salmonella Typhimurium Monophasic Variant 1,4,[5],12:i:- in China: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11040532. [PMID: 35453283 PMCID: PMC9031511 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11040532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Antibiotic resistance in Salmonella is a global public health problem. Salmonella enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- (S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-), a monophasic variant of Salmonella Typhmurium, is one of the leading Salmonella serovars in several countries. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of antibiotic resistance to this serovar in China through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Nineteen eligible studies during 2011–2021 were included. A total of 4514 isolates from humans, animals, foods, and the environment were reported, which mainly concerned isolates found in Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangsu, and Shanghai. A random-effects model was used to estimate the pooled resistance rate of S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-. Rates were found to be very high (values ≥ 75%) for tetracycline, ampicillin, sulfisoxazole, and streptomycin; high (50–75%) for nalidixic acid, amoxicillin–clavulanic acid, and chloramphenicol; and moderate (25–50%) for trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole, kanamycin, trimethoprim, and gentamicin. The rates of resistance to ciprofloxacin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, cefepime, ceftazidime, and colistin were low (values ≤ 25%), but of great concern in terms of their current clinical importance. Furthermore, a high multidrug resistance rate (86%, 95% CI: 78–92%) was present in S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-, with the ASSuT pattern largely dominating. Subgroup analysis results showed that the high heterogeneity of resistance rates was not entirely dependent on isolated sources. Taken together, the severity of antibiotic resistance in S. 1,4,[5],12:i:- urgently requires the rational use of antibiotics in future infection control and antibiotic stewardship programs.

Abstract
Foodborne illnesses caused by Salmonella represent a significant public health problem worldwide. The aim of this study was to establish multiplex PCR (mPCR) for the rapid identification of Salmonella serogroups B, C1, C2, D, and E as well as for the serovars enteritidis and typhimurium. Employing pan-genome analysis and PCR verification, B-rfbJ, C1-9679, C2-pimB, D-rfbJ, E-rfbC, and four genes (SE18636, SE16574, SE2599, and SE13329) were identified as specific target genes for Salmonella serogroups B, C1, C2, D, E, and S. enteritidis, respectively. Thereafter, three novel mPCR assays (one of 3-mPCR and two of 2-mPCR) were successfully developed to identify these bacteria based on the target genes and another S. typhimurium-specific STM4495 gene. The primers targeting C1-9679, C2-pimB, and E-rfbC genes specific to the serogroups C1, C2, and E, respectively, constituted a 3-mPCR, while the other two 2-mPCRs, respectively, consisting primers specific to serogroup D and S. enteritidis (D-rfbJ and SE16574), and serogroup B and S. typhimurium-specific primers (B-rfbJ and STM4495), were also designed. The specificity of each mPCR was further evaluated by using non-target strains. The detection limits of mPCRs were approximately 103-104 CFU mL-1 in pure culture and 104-105 CFU g-1 in spiked chicken meat. In addition, mPCR assays could correctly detect target Salmonella in food samples. These results suggest that specific targets could be mined efficiently through a pan-genome analysis tool, and the novel mPCR assays developed in this study offer a promising technique for rapid and accurate detection of five serogroups of Salmonella (B, C1, C2, D, and E) and two serovars (S. enteritidis and S. typhimurium).

Abstract
Salmonellosis is one of the most important bacterial diseases in pigeons. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in domestic pigeons (Columba livia f. domestica) in Poland, its antimicrobial susceptibility (both phenotypic and genotypic), and its capability for biofilm formation. The presence of selected virulence genes, nucleotide homology of selected genes, and susceptibility to bacteriophages were investigated as well. From the 585 pigeons tested, 5.47% turned out positive. All isolated strains were recognized as Salmonella enterica ser. Typhimurium. The asymptomatic pigeons were carriers of 37.5% of the isolates. The dominant variants were as follows: 1,4,[5],12,:i:1,2 (53.13%) and 1,4,[5],12,:‐:‐ (31.25%). Most of the strains analysed showed the ability to produce biofilm after 24 and 48 hr of incubation (59.38% and 53.13%, respectively). Over 90% of the strains were confirmed for lpfA, agafA, invA, sivH, and avrA virulence genes. Also, of the thirteen antimicrobial susceptibility genes, the following were confirmed: sul1, tet(A), blaTEM‐1, floR, strA, and strB. The most common were the strB (18%) and tet(A) (12%) genes that are responsible for coding resistance to aminoglycosides and tetracyclines, respectively. Most of the strains were phenotypically resistant to oxytetracycline (46.88%), neomycin (53.13%) and tylosin (100%). The susceptibility of the investigated Salmonella strains to the bacteriophages was between 33% and 100%. MLST, PCR MP and ERIC PCR analyses indicated a very high genetic similarity of the investigated strains (over 99%). Results of our study indicate that Salmonella enterica ser. Typhimurium is still an important agent in domestic pigeons and that its antimicrobial resistance increases. Alarming is also the confirmation of a single‐phase variant 1,4,[5],12:i,‐, which could have increased virulence and multi‐drug resistance encoded on the plasmid. Most importantly, however, such strains have been isolated from humans with clinical symptoms of Salmonella infection.

Abstract
Salmonella spp. is a foodborne pathogen present in the pork production chain, leading to potential contamination of end products and causing salmonellosis cases and outbreaks worldwide. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella spp., especially isolates obtained from animal origin food, is a global concern. This study aimed to isolate Salmonella from swine mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and to characterize the virulence and antibiotic resistance profiles. MLN samples were obtained from a swine slaughterhouse and subjected to Salmonella spp. isolation. Ten MLN samples were positive and 29 isolates were identified based on PCR (invA and ompC) and serotyping: Derby, Cerro, and Give. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis allowed to group the isolates based on their serotypes, resulting in three major clusters. All isolates presented the virulence-related genes pefA, sipA, sopB, spaN, and pagC. Relatively high numbers of Salmonella spp. were resistant to neomycin, polymyxin B, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, and nalidixic acid. Furthermore, 25 isolates presented simultaneous resistance to three or more antibiotic classes, being characterized as MDR. The obtained results confirmed the relevance of swine as reservoirs of Salmonella spp. in the pork production chain and demonstrated the MDR profiles of isolates. Proper control and surveillance are required to avoid the contamination of end products.

Abstract
This study evaluated 250 animals from 25 different processing lots, processed in four slaughterhouses in São Paulo state, Brazil for the presence of Salmonella in the mesenteric lymph nodes (10 g sample of each animal) and characterized the antibiotics resistance profile, the Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis - PFGE and Multi Locus Sequence Typing - MLST profiles of selected strains. The pathogen was present in 36.4% (n = 91, CL 95% 30.4-43.4) of samples and 72% (n = 18, CL 95% 50.6-87.9%) of the analyzed lots. The main serovars were S. Typhimurium (n = 23), Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica 1.4,5,12:i:- (n = 17), followed by S. Infantis (n = 12) and S. Havana (n = 11). Twenty-eight strains (30%) were classified as other serovars. Sixty-eight percent of the strains were resistant to Streptomycin and tetracycline, followed by ampicillin and sulphonamides (62.6%), chloramphenicol (56.0%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (41.8%) and nalidixic acid (40.7%). The antibiotics with lower resistance rates were cephalothin and aztreonam (both with 3.3% resistant), and ceftriaxone and cefepime (both with 7.7%). Multidrug-resistant strains (MDR) accounted for 70.3% of the isolates. Eight strains were submitted to MLST: four S. Typhimurium and one S.1.4,5,12:i:-, all belonging to the ST 19, two Salmonella Infantis, belonging to the ST 32 and one S. Derby, belonging to ST 40. Twenty-one isolates with different antibiotics resistance profiles from the most prevalent serovars were selected for PFGE analysis. Serovar S. Typhimurium (n = 11) revealed 4 pulsotypes and 1 cluster and S. 1.4,5,12:i:- (n = 10) revealed 5 pulsotypes and 4 clusters. The high prevalence of the pathogen, with its high rates of antibiotics resistance and belonging to genetic groups that are often associated with disease in humans, shows that the production chain of pork is a potential source of infection in salmonellosis cases. Therefore, effective preventive measures for pathogen control are needed to reduce the risk of foodborne diseases.

Abstract
Since 2014, Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:- has emerged as the most common serovar of Salmonella enterica identified from swine samples submitted to veterinary diagnostic laboratories in the United States. To compare the pathogenicity of S. 4,[5],12:i:- in swine to the known pathogenic Salmonella Typhimurium and lesser pathogenic Salmonella Derby, 72 pigs (20 per Salmonella serovar treatment and 12 controls) were inoculated with either S. Typhimurium, S. 4,[5],12:i:-, S. Derby, or sham-inoculated and followed for up to 28 days thereafter via rectal temperature, fecal scoring, and fecal culture. Animals were euthanized on days 2, 4, or 28 to determine the gross and histopathologic signs of disease and tissue colonization. The results clearly demonstrate that for the isolates selected, serovar 4,[5],12:i:- possesses similar ability as serovar Typhimurium to cause clinical disease, colonize the tonsils and ileocecal lymph nodes, and be shed in the feces of infected swine past resolution of clinical disease. To compare the competitive fitness of S. 4,[5],12:i:- to S. Typhimurium in swine when co-infected, 12 pigs were co-inoculated with equal concentrations of both S. Typhimurium and S. 4,[5],12:i and followed for up to 10 days thereafter. When co-inoculated, serovar 4,[5],12:i:- was consistently detected in the feces of a higher percentage of pigs and at higher concentrations than serovar Typhimurium, suggesting an increased competitive fitness of 4,[5],12:i:- relative to serovar Typhimurium when inoculated simultaneously into naïve pigs. Whole genome sequencing analysis of the isolates used in these studies revealed similar virulence factor presence in all S. 4,[5],12:i:- and S. Typhimurium isolates, but not S. Derby, providing additional evidence for similar pathogenicity potential between serovars 4,[5],12:i:- and Typhimurium. Altogether, this data strongly supports the hypothesis that S. 4,[5],12:i:- is a pathogen of swine and suggests a mechanism through increased competitive fitness for the increasing identification of Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:- in swine diagnostic samples over the past several years.

Abstract
Rapid identification of the infecting Salmonella serovar from porcine diagnostic samples is vital to allow implementation of appropriate on-farm treatment and management decisions. Although identification at the serogroup level can be rapidly achieved at most veterinary diagnostic laboratories, final Salmonella serovar identification often takes several weeks because of the limited number of reference laboratories performing the complex task of serotyping. Salmonella serogroup B, currently the dominant serogroup identified from swine clinical samples in the United States, contains serovars that vary from highly pathogenic to minimally pathogenic in swine. We determined the frequency of detection of individual group B serovars at the Iowa State Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory from 2008 to 2017, and validated a multiplex real-time PCR (rtPCR) to distinguish pathogenic serogroup B serovars from those of lesser pathogenicity. Our results indicate that, since 2014, Salmonella enterica ssp. enterica serovar 4,[5],12:i:- has been the dominant serovar identified from swine clinical samples at the ISU-VDL, with S. Typhimurium now the second most common serovar identified. We developed a rtPCR to allow rapid differentiation of samples containing S. 4,[5],12:i:- and S. Typhimurium from samples containing serovars believed to be of less pathogenicity, such as S. Agona and S. Derby. When combined with enrichment culture, this rtPCR has the ability to significantly improve the time to final serovar identification of the 2 most commonly identified pathogenic Salmonella serovars in swine, and allows rapid implementation of serovar-specific intervention strategies.

Abstract
Rapid and on-site DNA-based molecular detection has become increasingly important for sensitive, specific, and timely detection and treatment of various diseases. To prepare and store biomolecule-containing reagents stably, reducing agents are used during protein preparation, and freeze-drying technology has been applied to the protein reagents. Some of the additives used during these processes may affect subsequent processes such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In this study, we evaluated the impact of TCEP, a reducing agent, and TBA, a freeze-drying medium, on the performance of convection PCR (cPCR) using a battery-operable PCR device. Singleplex cPCR detection of a 249 bp amplicon from human genomic DNA suggested that approximately 82% of performance was achieved in the presence of 0.1 mM TCEP and 1% TBA. The limit of detection and the minimum number of cycles at which amplicons began to appear was a little lower (~ 82% efficiency) or higher (20 vs 15 cycles), respectively, in the chemical-treated group than in the control group. With larger amplicons of 500 bp, the chemical-treated group revealed approximately 78% of performance and amplicons started to appear at 20 cycles of cPCR in both groups. Similar results were obtained with multiplex cPCR amplification.

Abstract
A real-time PCR (qPCR) regimen, using up to six genetic targets, was developed to rapidly detect Salmonella and in particular identify Salmonella Enteritidis. The test regimen was first evaluated using a reference culture collection of Salmonella to confirm the appropriateness of the selected targets, which included up to three genetic markers for discrimination of Salmonella Enteritidis from other Salmonella serovars commonly found in poultry facilities. The qPCR procedure was then compared with culture methods used to detect Salmonella using a collection of enrichment broths previously generated from 239 environmental samples collected from a large number of hatchery facilities across Canada over several years. The qPCR regimen facilitated specific detection of Salmonella Enteritidis, and on a sample basis, it showed excellent agreement with the culture methods. Moreover, in many cases, qPCR detected Salmonella earlier in the culture process than did the culture method. Application of this method will significantly shorten test times and allow more timely identification of infected poultry premises, thereby improving present programmes aimed at controlling Salmonella Enteritidis at the environmental source.

Abstract
The authors describe a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) based aptasensor for Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium). Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs; 35 nm i.d.) were functionalized with the aptamer (ssDNA 1) and used as the capture probe, while smaller (15 nm) AuNPs were modified with a Cy3-labeled complementary sequence (ssDNA 2) and used as the signalling probe. The asymmetric gold nanodimers (AuNDs) were assemblied with the Raman signal probe and the capture probe via hybridization of the complementary ssDNAs. The gap between two nanoparticles is a "hot spot" in which the Raman reporter Cy3 is localized. It experiences a strong enhancement of the electromagnetic field around the particle. After addition of S. typhimurium, it will be bound by the aptamer which therefore is partially dehybridized from its complementary sequence. Hence, Raman intensity drops. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the SERS signal at 1203 cm-1 increases linearly with the logarithm of the number of colonies in the 102 to 107 cfu·mL-1 concentration range, and the limit of detection is 35 cfu·mL-1. The method can be performed within 1 h and was successfully applied to the analysis of spiked milk samples and performed very well and with high specificity. Graphical abstract DNA-assembled asymmetric gold nanodimers (AuNDs) were synthesized and appllied in a SERS-based aptasensor for S. typhimurium. Capture probe was preferentially combined with S. typhimurium and the structure of the AuNDs was destroyed. The "hot spot" vanished partly, this resulting in the decreased Raman intensity of Cy3.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovars Enteritidis and Typhimurium are the most common causative agents of human nontyphoidal salmonellosis. The rapid detection and timely treatment of salmonellosis are important to increase the curative ratio and prevent spreading of the disease. In this study, we developed a rapid multiplex convection polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method to detect Salmonella spp. and differentiate Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium. We used the invA gene for Salmonella spp. detection. Salmonella Enteritidis-specific primers and Salmonella Typhimurium-specific primers were designed using the insertion element (IE) and spy genes, respectively. The primer set for Salmonella spp. detection clearly detected both Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium after a 21-min amplification reaction. Serovar-specific primer sets for Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium specifically detected each target species in a 21-min amplification reaction. We were able to detect Salmonella spp. at a single copy level in the singleplex mode. The limits of detection for Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium were 30 copies in both the singleplex and multiplex modes. The PCR run time could be reduced to 10.5 min/15 cycles. The multiplex convection PCR method developed in this study could detect the Salmonella spp. Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium in artificially contaminated milk with as few as 100 colony-forming unit/mL after 4-h enrichment. The PCR assay developed in this study provides a rapid, specific, and sensitive method for the detection of Salmonella spp. and the differentiation of Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium.

Abstract
Aptamers are single-stranded oligonucleotide ligands that can bind to targets with high affinity and specificity. They have been widely studied in the field of diagnostics as alternatives to antibodies due to their favorable features such as easy labeling, temperature tolerance, lower cost and recognition of a wide variety of targets. In this study, an aptamer-based PCR method coupled with magnetic immunoseparation was developed to detect S. Typhimurium from ground turkey. Firstly, biotinylated polyclonal anti-S. Typhimurium antibody was immobilized on streptavidin-coated magnetic nanobeads to capture S. Typhimurium. Secondly, the aptamers were added and bound to the surface of S. Typhimurium after blocking the magnetic nanobeads with short ssDNA. Finally, the aptamers were released by heating and amplified by PCR. After optimization, this assay was able to detect 102 CFU/mL of S. Typhimurium in pure culture, and 103 CFU/mL of S. Typhimurium in ground turkey. This study demonstrated the feasibility and application of an aptamer-based PCR method coupled with magnetic immunoseparation for sensitive detection of S. Typhimurium in ground turkey.
