Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of three kinds of antimicrobial-resistant genes in Enterobacter cloacae. METHODS Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed by microdiluted method and antimicrobial - resistant genes were detected by PCR methods in 20 clinical strains of E. cloacae. RESULTS Twenty strains of E. cloacae showed multiple-drug resistance.Among 20 strains, the positive rates of ACT-1, DHA and TEM genes were 70.0%, 45.0% and 55.0%, respectively. The positive rates of aac(6′) -Ⅰ , ant(3″)-Ⅰ, ant(2″)-Ⅰ, aac(6′)-Ⅱ, and aac(3)-Ⅱgenes were 50.0%, 15.0%, 10.0%, 5.0% and 5.0%, respectively . The positive rates of sul Ⅰand dfrA1 genes were 50.0%, and 5.0%, respectively. But other genes were not found. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that there are multiple-drug resistance and high positive rate of three kinds of antimicrobial- resistant genes in E. cloacae isolated from our hospital.
