Detection and characterization of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in Salmonella enterica strains of healthy food animals in Spain
The Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy publish this investigation article
OBJECTIVES: To carry out the characterization of the genes encoding extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and their genetic environments in four expanded-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Salmonella enterica isolates (serovars: two Virchow, one Enteritidis, one Rissen) recovered during the monitoring programmes performed in Spain by the VAV Network from faecal samples of pigs, poultry and laying hens at the slaughterhouse level. METHODS: The presence and characterization of ESBL genes as well as their genetic environments in the four S. enterica isolates were investigated by PCR and sequenc…

Clinical and molecular analysis of macrolide resistance in Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease
Investigation published in American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine
RATIONALE: The clinical features and outcome of macrolide-resistant Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease are not known. OBJECTIVES: Characterize patients, treatment, and isolates in macrolide-resistant MAC lung disease. METHODS: Retrospective chart review, susceptibility testing, molecular fingerprinting, and DNA sequence analyses of resistant MAC isolates. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: We identified 51 patients over a 15-yr period with clarithromycin-resistant MAC (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)>or=32 microg/ml) lung disease at a single referral center. Twenty-four (47%) pa…
