Raccoons are an invasive alien species widely distributed in the Madrid region of Spain. These animals can carry a variety of enteric bacteria with associated antimicrobial resistance, which can infect humans and livestock. However, to our knowledge, the presence of non- in raccoons has not been previously studied.
We conducted a study to examine the species distribution of isolates other than , as well as their antimicrobial resistance, in the faeces of 83 raccoons in the Madrid region.
We detected 12 isolates other than belonging to seven different species: (1 isolate), (3 isolates), (1 isolate), (2 isolates), subsp. (1 isolate), (2 isolates) and (2 isolates). These isolates were found in 7 of the 83 (8.4%) animals studied. To our knowledge, this study is the first report of the presence of non- in raccoon faeces. All isolates but one were resistant to at least one of the 14 antimicrobials tested. Resistance to ampicillin (83.3%), amoxicillinclavulanic acid (50%) and cefoxitin (33.3%) was the most frequent.
Our study indicates that raccoons are a potential source of infection with other than for humans and livestock in the Madrid region.
浣熊是一种外来入侵物种,广泛分布于西班牙马德里地区。这些动物可携带多种具有相关抗菌耐药性的肠道细菌,能感染人类和牲畜。然而,据我们所知,此前尚未研究过浣熊体内非[具体细菌名称]的存在情况。
我们开展了一项研究,以检测马德里地区83只浣熊粪便中除[具体细菌名称]之外的其他细菌分离株的种类分布及其抗菌耐药性。
我们检测到除[具体细菌名称]之外的12株细菌分离株,分属于7个不同物种:[物种1](1株)、[物种2](3株)、[物种3](1株)、[物种4](2株)、[物种5]亚种[具体亚种](1株)、[物种6](2株)和[物种7](2株)。在所研究的83只动物中,有7只(8.4%)检测到了这些分离株。据我们所知,本研究是首次报道浣熊粪便中存在非[具体细菌名称]的情况。除1株分离株外,所有分离株对所检测的14种抗菌药物中的至少一种耐药。对氨苄西林(83.3%)、阿莫西林克拉维酸(50%)和头孢西丁(33.3%)的耐药最为常见。
我们的研究表明,在马德里地区,浣熊是人类和牲畜感染除[具体细菌名称]之外其他细菌的潜在来源。
