AB  - Despite common resistance to antimicrobials in Escherichia coli isolates from farm animals in Serbia, no data are currently accessible on its occurrence in E. coli isolated from gulls. Therefore, 67 cloacal swabs and 70 fecal samples from black-headed gulls were investigated for the presence of antibiotic-resistant E. coli isolates. Ninety-nine isolates were obtained during the study. Resistotyping and resistance gene typing has shown that 44 isolates harbor resistance to one or more antibiotics. Multidrug resistance was detected in 24 E. coli isolates. Ten isolates were resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotics and were studied in detail including virulence gene typing, phylogenetic and multilocus sequence typing, and mating. These ten isolates belonged to phylogenetic groups B2 (five isolates), D (four isolates) and B1 (one isolate). Five different sequence types (ST38, ST2307, ST224, ST162 and ST34) were detected in E. coli isolates with AmpC phenotype and genotype. One isolate carried the Inc I2/FIB replicon type plasmid with the bla(CTX-M-1) gene. Nine isolates had bla(CMY-2) genes, which were detected on conjugative plasmids in seven isolates. The virulence genes hly, iroN, iss, ompT and cvaC were detected in one transconjugant. Ten isolates were found to be resistant to ciprofloxacin, whose MIC ranged from 4 to 32 mg/L. Genotyping revealed single or double mutations in the quinolone resistance determining region (QRDR) of the gyrA or gyrA, parC and parE genes, respectively. So, Black-headed gulls from Serbia may be colonized by multidrug-resistant E. coli, some of which are resistant to critically important antibiotics in medicine.

AB  - The prevalence of quinolone resistance was studied in Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis isolates collected during 2005-2010 in Southern Ba. cka County, Serbia. A total of 878 clinical isolates were examined, among which 19 (2.2%) nalidixic acid (NAL)-resistant S. Enteritidis were detected by selection on agar plates containing 64 mg/L NAL. Antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates was tested by the agar dilution method. According to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) breakpoints, ciprofloxacin (CIP) resistance was not present in the strains. Multiple drug resistance was rare, and resistance to NAL was most often present as a single resistance property. All but one NAL-resistant S. Enteritidis showed reduced susceptibility to CIP [i.e. minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)  gt = 0.125 mg/L]. This isolate of human origin had a CIP MIC of 0.064 mg/L and DNA sequencing revealed that it contained an Asp87Gly gyrA mutation. Most of the remaining isolates had MICs for NAL and CIP of 256 mg/L and 0.256 mg/L, respectively. Mutations in the Asp87 codon resulted in substitutions to Asn in most of the isolates, but Asp87Gly and Ser83Phe exchanges were also detected. No mutations were present in the gyrB, parC or parE genes. Although CIP resistance was absent, reduced susceptibility characterised by mutations in gyrA was apparent among S. Enteritidis isolates from Serbia.
