Phylogenetic analysis and antimicrobial susceptibility profile of uropathogens.

ABSTRACT: The uropathogens is the main cause of urinary tract infection (UTI). The aim of the study was to isolate bacteria from urine samples of UTI patients and find out the susceptibility of isolated bacteria. Bacteria were identified using both conventional and molecular methods. Sanger sequence procedure used for 16S ribosomal RNA and phylogenetic analysis was performed using Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA-7) software. In this study, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus were reported as 58, 28 and 14.0% respectively. Phylogenetic tree revealed that 99% of sample No. Ai (05) is closely related to E. coli to (NR 114042.1 E. coli strain NBRC 102203). Aii (23) is 99% similar to K. pneumoniae to (NR 117686.1 K. pneumonia strain DSM 30104) and 90% Bi (48) is closely linked to S. aureus to (NR 113956.1 S. aureus strain NBRC 100910). The antibiotic susceptibility of E. coli recorded highest resistance towards ampicillin (90%) and least resistant to ofloxacin (14%). Some of the other antibiotics such amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, ceftazidime, cefuroxime and nitrofurantoin resistance were observed 86, 62, 24, 55, 48 and 35% respectively. The cefuroxime showed the highest antibiotic resistance against K. pneumoniae with 85% followed by amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, ceftazidime, ampicillin and nitrofurantoin resulted in 60, 45, 67, 70, 75 and 30% respectively. The resistance of S. aureus against erythromycin, cefuroxime and ampicillin were found with 72%. The resistance against amoxicillin, gentamicin, ceftazidime and ceftriaxone found 57, 43, 43 and 15% respectively. Phylogenetic analysis shows that sequences are closely related with the reference sequences and E. coli is the dominant bacteria among UTI patients and is resistant to the commercially available antibiotics.

Project description:Background and objectivesUrinary tract infection is one of the most common bacterial infections causing high morbidity and mortality. The alarming rise of multidrug-resistant uropathogens worldwide forced the clinician to rethink the old drugs like Fosfomycin for its therapeutic management. Our objective was to compare agar dilution, disc diffusion and E-test method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Fosfomycin against different drug-resistant uropathogens.Materials and methodsConsecutive 181 uropathogens were tested for Fosfomycin susceptibility using agar dilution, disc diffusion and E-test. Results were interpreted using Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) breakpoints. Whole genome sequencing analysis was done on the 4 XDR/PDR Fosfomycin resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates.ResultsEscherichia coli was found as the most common (62.4%) uropathogen followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (21%). Considering agar dilution as the gold standard, 6.1% of isolates were resistant to Fosfomycin. Following CLSI breakpoints, the susceptibility of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, other Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 92.9%, 92.1%, 100%, 100%; whereas using EUCAST breakpoints the susceptibility rates were 85.7%, 86.9%, 92.9%, and 100%, respectively. The essential agreement, categorical agreement, major error, and very major error for E-test/disc diffusion for all the organisms were 91.2%/Not Applicable, 95%/93.9%, 1.8%/4.7%, 9.1%/9.1%, respectively. Whole-genome sequencing showed mutation UhpT gene as well as the presence of plasmid-mediated fosA5 or fosA6 genes conferring Fosfomycin resistance.ConclusionThis result supports very low resistance of Enterobacterales against Fosfomycin; hence should be considered a valuable option to treat multidrug-resistant uropathogens. Disc diffusion was observed to be a convenient method for Fosfomycin susceptibility testing compared to agar dilution.

Project description:BackgroundUrinary tract infection (UTI) is the commonest bacterial infections during pregnancy, leading to significant maternal and prenatal morbidity and mortality.MethodThis hospital-based cross-sectional study during November 2017 to January 2018 was aimed to determine hospital-based antibacterial susceptibility patterns of bacterial uropathogens among 200 pregnant women in Eastern Ethiopia. ~ 10-20 ml clean-catch midstream urine samples were collected by the study participants. The well-mixed urine samples standardized to 1 µl have inoculated onto Cystine Lactose Electrolyte-Deficient and MacConkey agar. The inoculum was cultured at 37 °C under aerobic conditions for 18-48 h and examined macroscopically to evaluate the colony appearance and size of colonies. The isolate on the plates with pure growth and colonies ≥ 105 CFU/ml were further subjected to biochemical identification and susceptibility testing according to the standard procedures explained in the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guideline. SPSS version 25 was used for data analysis. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, and cross-tabulation were used to present the findings in the form of graphs and tables.ResultsThe response rate for this study was 98.04%. Thirty-one bacteria were isolated among the 200 urine samples processed, which gave the overall UTI prevalence of 15.5%. The majority (90.3%) of the isolates were Gram-negative. Escherichia coli (45.2%) was the most frequent isolated uropathogen which followed by Proteus spp. (22.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (16.1%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.7%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (6.5%). Among the isolates, 96.4% of them were susceptible to amikacin and followed by nitrofurantoin (90.3%), and gentamicin (83.9%). However, high rates of resistance to ampicillin (58.1%), amoxicillin-clavulanate (51.6%), and cotrimoxazole (51.6%) were observed. Overall, 16(51.6%) of the bacterial isolates had developed multiple drug resistance to the selected antimicrobials.ConclusionIn general, the overall prevalence of UTI was high, 15.5%. Most of isolated bacterial uropathogens were Gram-negative bacteria, and Escherichia coli was the most frequent isolate. The majority of the isolates were susceptible to amikacin, nitrofurantoin, and gentamicin. However, a high rate of resistance was observed to ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, and cotrimoxazole. More than half of the isolated bacteria had multiple drug-resistant features. Therefore, periodic and continuous urine culture for screening and diagnosis is mandatory to reduce the consequence of UTI and multidrug resistance bacteria in pregnancy.

Project description:Humans frequently contract urinary tract infections (UTIs), which can be brought on by uropathogens (UPs) that are multi-drug resistant. Treatment for UTIs brought on by pathogenic UPs that produce extended-spectrum lactamases (ESBLs) is more costly and potentially fatal. As a result, the objective of this study was to use culture, biochemical, and 16S rRNA sequencing to identify and characterize UPs isolated from outpatients in Noakhali, Bangladesh, who had symptoms of UTIs. ESBL gene identification and quinolone resistance gene typing were then performed on the isolates using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Throughout the trial's 8-month duration, 152 (76%) of 200 urine samples were positive for the presence of UPs. The overall number of UPs recovered was 210, with 39 individuals having multiple UPs present in their samples. Among all of the isolates, Escherichia coli (45.24%, 95/210; 95% confidence interval (CI): 35.15-57.60%), Enterobacter spp. (24.76%, 52/210; CI: 19.15-35.77%), Klebsiella spp. (20.95%; 44/210; CI: 15.15-30.20%), and Providencia spp. (9.05%; 19/210; CI: 4.95-19.25%) were the four most prevalent bacteria found in the isolates. The UPs displayed a very high level of resistance to piperacillin 96.92% (126/130), ampicillin 90% (117/130), nalidixic acid 77.69% (101/130), cefazolin 70% (91/130), amoxicillin 50% (55/130), cefazolin 42.31% (55/130), nitrofurantoin 43.08% (56/130), and ciprofloxacin 33.08% (43/130), whereas resistance to netilmicin (3.85%), amikacin (4.62%), and imipenem (9.23%) was low. Individually, every species of E. coli and Providencia spp. showed greater ampicillin, amikacin, cefazolin, cefazolin, and nalidixic acid resistance than the others. The bivariate results indicate several antibiotic pairings, and isolates had meaningful associations. All MDR isolates were subjected to PCR, which revealed that blaCTX-M-15 genes predominated among the isolates, followed by the blaTEM class (37%). Isolates also had the qnrS, aac-6´-Ib-cr, and gyrA genes. The findings provide worrying indications of a major expansion of MDR isolates in the study locations, particularly the epidemiological balCTX-M 15, with the potential for the transmission of multi-drug-resistant UP strains in the population.
