Antimicrobial resistance and potential virulence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from water and bivalve mollusks from Bahia, Brazil

Analysis of the antimicrobial resistance gene frequency in whole-genome sequenced Vibrio from Latin American countries

“…Despite the limited number of studies that have analysed the antimicrobial resistance of Vibrio strains in Latin America [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] and the fact that the present study did not comprehended phenotypic resistance results, our findings agree with previous reports on both genotypic and phenotypic data from these countries. Our data also reinforce the accuracy of WGS and its capacity to predict phenotypic antimicrobial resistance profiles.…”

Occurrence and Molecular Characterization of Potentially Pathogenic Vibrio spp. in Seafood Collected in Sicily

“…Referring to the assessment of antimicrobial resistance in V. parahaemolyticus , our findings are similar to those reported by other authors about the incidence of ampicillin resistance [ 10 , 31 , 33 ], while we found a lower rate of resistance to streptomycin compared to others [ 51 ]. Referring to cefazolin and cephalothin, our results are comparable to those reported by Shaw et al in 2014 [ 33 ] and Kang et al in 2017 [ 51 ], while greater rates of resistance were reported more recently [ 10 , 31 ]. Apart from slight differences in terms of percentages obtained, our findings confirmed that the V. parahaemolyticus isolates were resistant to ampicillin and first generation cephalosporins, in agreement with previous reports.…”

Prevalence, Antibiotic-Resistance, and Virulence Characteristics of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in Restaurant Fish Tanks in Seoul, South Korea

“…The incidence of V. parahaemolyticus in the analyzed fishtank water samples was similar to that previously detected in fish-tank water samples collected from urban seafood restaurants in Busan, Korea (Cho, 2014). Most notably, the urban-based prevalence reported in that study (43.8%) (Cho, 2014) and our present study (50.7%) were both markedly higher than the 20% range detected in coastal areas, and environmental sea-and estuary-water samples (Velazquez-Roman et al, 2012;Haley et al, 2014;Silva et al, 2018). It is likely that the higher prevalence reported in the urban fishtank water samples is the result of an accumulation effect caused by the standard method of replacing tank water, whereby two-thirds of the water is replaced, and one-third is retained.…”
