Incidence and antibiotic susceptibilities of Yersinia enterocolitica and other Yersinia species recovered from meat and chicken in Tehran, Iran

Abstract: The objective of this study is to investigate the prevalence and determine the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of Yersinia species in beef meat and chicken meat samples in different seasons. The most antibiotic resistance belongs to cephalothine (98%). Our results showed that isolation ratio of Y. enterocolitica and the other species is higher in cold climates. The majority of isolates were resistant to cephalothine. The most active pharmacologic agents were chloramphenicol, gentamicin and trimetoprim.

“…The low level of resistant Y. enterocolitica against imipinem, gentamycin, piperacillin, chloramphenicol, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, aztreonam and trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole could be because of their infrequent use in animal production (Henton et al 2011 ). Similar prevalence of resistance to antimicrobial agents has been reported for Y. enterocolitica strains recovered from food-producing animals in other countries (Li et al 2018 ; Sharifi et al 2011 ; Ye et al 2015 ).…”
