Journal ArticleDOI

Leila Soufi,Mohamed Salah Abbassi,Yolanda Sáenz,Laura Vinué,Sergio Somalo,Myriam Zarazaga,Asad Abbas,Rafika Dbaya,Latifa Khanfir,Assia Ben Hassen,Salah Hammami,Carmen Torres +11 more
TL;DR: E. coli isolates of poultry origin could be a reservoir of antimicrobial-resistance genes and of integrons, and its evolution should be tracked in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Escherichia coli of poultry food origin as reservoir of sulphonamide resistance genes and integrons.
Leila Soufi,Yolanda Sáenz,Laura Vinué,Mohamed Salah Abbassi,Elena Ruiz,Myriam Zarazaga,Assia Ben Hassen,Salah Hammami,Carmen Torres +8 more
TL;DR: The role of commensal E. coli isolates from poultry meat as an important reservoir for sulphonamide resistance genes and integrons carrying antimicrobial resistance genes is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Bovine Mastitis in Eight Countries: Genotypes, Detection of Genes Encoding Different Toxins and Other Virulence Genes
Valentina Monistero,Hans U. Graber,Claudia Pollera,Paola Cremonesi,Bianca Castiglioni,Enriqueta Bottini,Alejandro Ceballos-Marquez,Laura Lasso-Rojas,Volker Kroemker,Nicole Wente,Inge-Marie Petzer,Carlos Santisteban,Jeff Runyan,Marcos Veiga dos Santos,Bruna Gomes Alves,Renata Piccinini,Valerio Bronzo,Mohamed Salah Abbassi,Meriam Ben Said,Paolo Moroni +19 more
TL;DR: The wide variety of S. aureus genotypes found in dairy cattle worldwide demonstrated suggests that considering the region of interest might help to formulate strategies for reducing the infection spreading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic characterisation of CTX-M-15-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli strains isolated from stem cell transplant patients in Tunisia.
Mohamed Salah Abbassi,Carmen Torres,Wafa Achour,Laura Vinué,Yolanda Sáenz,Daniela Costa,Ons Bouchami,Assia Ben Hassen +7 more
TL;DR: The occurrence of the bla(CTX-M-15) gene in unrelated strains might have originated from the dissemination of mobile genetic elements in which ISEcp1 may have played an important role.
Journal ArticleDOI
High prevalence of mcr-1 encoding colistin resistance and first identification of blaCTX-M-55 in ESBL/CMY-2-producing Escherichia coli isolated from chicken faeces and retail meat in Tunisia.
Bilel Hassen,Mohamed Salah Abbassi,Laura Ruiz-Ripa,Olouwafemi Mistourath Mama,Abdennaceur Hassen,Carmen Torres,Salah Hammami +6 more
TL;DR: A high frequency of ESBL-producers and colistin-resistant E. coli in chicken and derived food is reported and the detection for the first time of blaCTX-M-55 in poultry in Tunisia is reported.
