万古霉素和耐甲氧西林凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌(VMRCoNS)在埃及家禽养殖场的致病潜力很少受到关注。因此,这项研究旨在研究进口家禽和商业家禽养殖场中CoNS的患病率,评估毒力和抗生素抗性基因的存在(海,seb,sec,SED,see,和mecA),并评估其在肉鸡中的致病性。在25个分离株中鉴定出7个物种,如8gallinarum,5腐生链球菌,5S.色原,3S.Warneri,2个人类,1S.caprae,和1个表皮葡萄球菌。所有分离株均对克林霉素耐药,多西环素,万古霉素,甲氧西林,利福平,还有青霉素.在14个分离株中证实了mecA基因,而sed基因在七个分离株中被揭示。商业1天大的罗斯肉鸡小鸡分为八组,每组三个重复(10只鸟/组):每组为阴性对照;组(hild,,IV,V,VI,VII,和VIII)皮下接种人沙门氏菌108CFUml-1,S、Caprae,表皮葡萄球菌,S、gallinarum,S、色原,S.Warneri,和腐生链球菌,分别。VIII组和V组的死亡率分别为100%和20%,分别,没有其他群体死亡的证据。最高的CoNS物种的重新隔离记录在第七组中,VIII,和V.尸检和组织病理学检查显示内脏器官中常见的多发性浆膜炎,IV组肝和心肌坏死,V,和VI。这些发现揭示了CoNS的致病潜力,因此,必须特别注意它们对公共卫生的影响。
The pathogenic potential of vancomycin and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci (VMRCoNS) on Egyptian poultry farms has received little attention. Therefore, this study aims to study the prevalence of CoNS in imported poultry flocks and commercial poultry farms, evaluate the presence of virulence and antibiotic resistance genes (sea, seb, sec, sed, see, and mecA), and assess their pathogenicity in broiler chicks. Seven species were identified among 25 isolates, such as 8 S. gallinarum, 5 S. saprophyticus, 5 S. chromogens, 3 S. warneri, 2 S. hominis, 1 S. caprae, and 1 S. epidermidis. All isolates were resistant to clindamycin, doxycycline, vancomycin, methicillin, rifampicin, and penicillin. The mecA gene was confirmed in 14 isolates, while the sed gene was revealed in seven isolates. Commercial 1-day-old Ross broiler chicks were divided into eight groups of three replicates (10 birds/group): group Ӏ was negative control; groups (П, Ш, IV, V, VI, VII, and VIII) were subcutaneously inoculated with 108 CFUml-1 of S. hominis, S. caprae, S. epidermidis, S. gallinarum, S. chromogens, S. warneri, and S. saprophyticus, respectively. Groups VIII and V had mortality rates of 100% and 20%, respectively, with no evidence of mortalities in the other groups. The highest re-isolation of CoNS species was recorded in groups VII, VIII, and V. Postmortem and histopathological examination revealed the common presence of polyserositis in the internal organs, and hepatic and myocardial necrosis in groups IV, V, and VI. These findings revealed the pathogenic potential of CoNS, so special attention must be directed toward their public health impact.
