“…The result of antimicrobial susceptibility testing in this study revealed that all Salmonella serotypes were 100% resistant to ampicillin, 90.6% to tetracycline, and 71.9% to streptomycin (Table 2). These results were not unusual as increasing resistance of non-typhoidal Salmonella to ampicillin, tetracycline, cotrimoxazole and chloramphenicol have been reported in many parts of the world such as the Netherland (Kivi et al, 2005), Singapore (Ling et al, 2002), Finland (Takkinen et al, Kenya (Kariuki et al, 2006b) and Nigeria (Akinyemi et al, 2007). Drug abuse, over the counter sales of antibiotics, use of antibiotics as growth promoter in animal and prophylaxis use of sulphamethoxazole-pyrimethamine for plasmodiasis were some factors linked to the increasing resistance to these antibiotics (Kariuki et al, 2006b).…”

Non-typhoidal Salmonellae have been extensively incriminated worldwide as common causes of bacterial gastroenteritis in humans and animals. This study investigated patterns of resistance of prevailing Salmonella serotypes from poultry and asymptomatic poultry workers. A total of 560 stool samples, comprising 200 from non-diarrhoeic workers and 360 from diarrhoeic poultry were randomly collected. Samples were processed and isolates identified by standard methods. The isolates were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility tests using standard procedures. Sixty-four Salmonellae belonging to Salmonella typhimurium 32(50%), Salmonella gallinarum 28(43.75%) and Salmonella enteritidis 4(6.25%) were recorded, with S. typhimurium being the most prevalence serotype. There was statistical significance relationship (p>0.05) between the S. typhimurium isolated from poultry and healthy poultry workers. Salmonella serotypes were 100% resistant to ampicillin, 90.6% to tetracycline and moderately sensitive to nalidic acid (62.5%). Fluoroquinolone resistant S. typhimurium strains from poultry were also observed. Seventeen resistance patterns were observed with AmpCotNitStrTet, AmpNitNalStrTet and AmpNitStrTet being the most frequent patterns recorded. The study revealed emergence multiple drug resistant Salmonella serotypes from poultry and asymptomatic workers. Continuous use of fluoroquinolones as a growth promoter in animal feeds could be re-examined to reduce the widespread and circulation of emerging strains of this bacterium.

“…The Netherlands initially responded negatively to the Enter-net inquiry, but some weeks later discovered an outbreak with the same strain of MDR-DT104 [14]. Both outbreaks, the Danish and the Dutch, were notified to the infectious community through brief, early reports in the weekly bulletin Eurosurveillance [15, 16] and the Danish outbreak was also reported in the national weekly epidemiological bulletin [17].…”

We report an outbreak with Salmonella Typhimurium DT104 resistant to six different antibiotic classes. The outbreak occurred in Denmark in July/August 2005 and was traced to a single restaurant. In addition to patient interviews, an important tool in the investigation of this outbreak was comparison by multi-locus variable number of tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) typing of patient strains with strains from the food surveillance system. This showed that the source of the outbreak was imported beef served as carpaccio. Carpaccio, thinly sliced raw fillet of beef, has not previously been associated with outbreaks, but should be considered a high-risk food item. This outbreak was one of two in different European Union (EU) countries traced back to beef from one company in a third EU country. This underscores the importance of efficient international Salmonella surveillance and food-safety control systems enabling timely interventions within the EU.

“…As a final point, infections with SE have decreased substantially in recent years (RIVM, 2013), whereas those with ST mv have emerged quickly and those with ST remained relatively stable during the last decade (RIVM, 2013), with some major outbreaks detected Kivi et al, 2007, Kivi et al, 2005van Duynhoven et al, 2009;Whelan et al, 2010). It is then increasingly important to provide public health surveillance with suitable data targets and analytical tools to differentiate the sources of Salmonella within these serovars.…”

Large outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium DT104, the Netherlands, September–November 2005

Abstract: At the end of September 2005, an outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium DT104 infections was detected in the Netherlands. From 19 September to 7 November 2005, 165 extra cases of S. Typhimurium DT104 infection were recorded
