Abstract:
Objective To establish the in vitro biofilm model of Laribacter hongkongensis(LH),to analyze the type Ⅰ integron related genes carried by LH and to investigate the mechanism of LH resistance to quinolones.Methods The biofilm forming abilities of LH clinical isolates were determined by Giemsa staining qualitative method and by crystal violet staining semi-quantitative method.The sensitivity of LH to norfloxacin,ofloxacin,levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin and lomefloxacin in both planktonic and biofilm conditions were dectermined by broth microdilution susceptibility tests.Type I integron related genes carried in 18 LH strains resistant to quinolone were detected by PCR amplification method.Results The detection results by Giemsa staining demonstrated that 36 strains in 55 LH clinical isolates formed visible biofilm,and the biofilm formation rate was 65.4%(36/55).In the biofilm forming ability detected by crystal violet staining semi-quantitative method,OD560≤0.15 was in 8 strains of LH,0.150.20 in 7 strains respectively.The levels of minimal biofilm inhibitory concentration in norfloxacin,ofloxacin,levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin and lomefloxacin to LH were respectively higher than the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) in the corresponding floating bacteria(P<0.05).Among 55 strains of LH,18 strains were resistant to quinolones,the resistance rate was 32.7%,and the type I integron in 18 strains of LH carried the drug resistant genes,these drug resistant genes played the drug resistance role in corresponding bacterial strains.Conclusion Drug resistance gene formation and widespread of LH may be associated with type I integron.
