The multiresistant Acinetobacter baumannii European clone I type strain RUH875 (A297) carries a genomic antibiotic resistance island AbaR21, plasmid pRAY and a cluster containing ISAba1-sul2-CR2-strB-strA
Аннотация:cassette (mecA, ccrAB2 and IS1272), there was no indication for a direct genetic exchange between S. sciuri and S. aureus, as recently reported for human staphylococci. 7Lastly, three veal calves coming from different farms carried both an MRCoNS and an MRSA, but, in each case, both bacteria shared no common resistance pattern or SCCmec cassette.In conclusion, our data demonstrate the presence of both MRSA and MRCoNS in healthy veal calves at the slaughterhouse.These data should be completed by further on-farm studies and point out two potential risks for human health.First, S. sciuri can infect humans and such multiresistant strains might cause severe diseases in at-risk patients.Second, the acquisition of the IEC cluster by the ST398 clone might be an emerging public health problem, since it may enhance its virulence and dissemination potential for humans.Therefore, ST398 isolated from animals should be surveyed to evaluate any shift toward human adaptation.
