Phenotypic and molecular characterization of CTX-M-14 extended-spectrum β-lactamase and plasmid-mediated ACT-like AmpC β-lactamase produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from chickens in Henan Province, China.
2012
Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases produced by a clinical isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniae from chickens were detected with confirmatory phenotypic tests of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of 18 antibacterial drugs against K. pneumoniae were determined by the 2-fold microdilution method. The genotype and subtype of the ESBL-producing and AmpC β-lactamase-producing K. pneumoniae isolate were identified by PCR amplification of the enzyme- encoding genes followed by DNA sequencing analysis. K. pneumoniae K 1 isolate was an ESBL-producing and AmpC β-lactamase-producing bacteria with high resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillins, third-generation cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones, and aminoglycosides. The sequence analysis showed that K. pneumoniae K 1 harbored TEM-type, SHV-type, CTX-M-type, and ACT-type AmpC β-lactamase nucleotide
