“…In contrast to our results, the Y. enterocolitica strains isolated from clinical and non-clinical sources in Brazil were not positive for cefoxitin resistance (40). β-lactamases, BlaA and BlaB that offer ampicillin and first-generation cephalosporin resistance in Y. enterocolitica have been reported in previous studies (13,36,37,43). In this study, the positive isolates for blaA and blaB genes were ampicillin resistant and ceftazidime susceptible according to MIC values.…”

“…Similarly, MIC results for ceftazidime in Y. enterocolitica from swine and pork products showed that all strains were categorized as susceptible (35). All Y. enterocolitica from the pork production chain (8) and from fruits and vegetables (36) were resistant to ampicillin. In some studies, the resistance to ampicillin was detected in 92% of the isolates from different samples including human and nonhuman and 87.2% of Y. enterocolitica clinical isolates (37,38).…”

Objective: Yersinia enterocolitica which is an important foodborne pathogen causing illness in humans is an extremely heterogeneous species consisting of different subtypes. It has the intrinsic resistance to β-lactam antibiotics because of the production of β-lactamases, BlaA and BlaB. Y. enterocolitica exhibits variable susceptibilities to β-lactams. Materials and Methods:The expression of the blaA and blaB genes by polymerase chain reaction, and the susceptibility to some β-lactams including penicillins and cephalosporins using the broth microdilution and disk diffusion methods were determined. A total of 18 Y. enterocolitica isolates were examined.Results: Overall, 33.3% of these isolates carried the blaA and blaB genes, all of which were recovered from chicken meat. The wide range of MIC for ampicillin (≤2-128 µg/mL) and ceftazidime (≤0.0625-2 µg/mL) was also observed. Of the Y. enterocolitica isolates, 55.6% were resistant to ampicillin (≥32 µg/mL) while the remaining isolates (44.4%) were susceptible to ampicillin (≤ 8 µg/mL). All isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime at the concentration tested. According to the disk diffusion test, 55.6% and 33.3% of the isolates were resistant to ticarcillin and cefoxitin, respectively. No resistance to piperacillin and ceftriaxone was found. Conclusion:The results showed that the presence of the blaA and blaB genes and intrinsic resistance against penicillins and cephalosporins were variable among Y. enterocolitica food isolates. Furthermore, the blaA and blaB genes were expressed in most of the resistant isolates to β-lactams, which may indicate the contribution of the genes to the drug resistance.

“…In the current research, the isolated biotype 1B was more frequent compared to studies in China, Iran and Malaysia (Kiani et al, 2019;Tan et al, 2014; Y. W. Ye et al, 2014). On the other hand, the studies conducted in Argentina, Chile, the Czech Republic, and Brazil showed no isolated biotype 1B of Y. enterocolitica (Frazão, Andrade, Darini, & Falcão, 2017;Mastrodonato et al, 2018;Verbikova et al, 2018). According to our findings and another study carried out in Iran, the prevalence rate of biotype 1B isolates was higher compared to other countries such as China, Turkey, and Egypt (Ahmed, Tahoun…”

The present study aimed to investigate the contamination rate of various traditional Iranian cheese samples with Yersinia enterocolitica. In total, 200 cheese samples were collected from the northeast of Iran, and 10 types of traditional cheese were evaluated, including Lighvan, Kurdish, lactic, Tape-Salam, Onsory, Turkmen (type one and two), Sistani, Baluchi, and Kormange. The samples were analyzed using pre-enrichment Peptone-Sorbitol-Bile (PSB) broth, Yersinia selective agar (Cefsulodin-Irgasan-Novobiocin (CIN))following polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Antimicrobial tests were carried out using 13 antibiotics on all the positive samples. From the cheese samples collected from Khorasan Razavi province, Kurdish cheese had the highest contamination rate (9/20; 45%), while the lowest contamination rate was observed in Lighvan and Onsory cheese. Also, the most commonly identified biotype was biotype 1A (23/38; 61%). Y. entrocolitica was mostly susceptible to ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, gentamicin, chloramphenicol, cefotaxime, and ceftazidime, while resistant to ampicillin and amoxicillin.
