Popis: Background and Aim: Chickens are considered as the main source of Salmonella, with infection potentially spreading to the public through outlets. The study aimed to investigate poultry shops for Salmonella enterica resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins-resistant (ESCR) and carbapenems-resistant (CR). Materials and Methods: Samples were collected from chicken giblets, water tanks, and workers at retail shops. Salmonella was isolated and serotyped; the presence of invA, stn, ompA, and ompF was determined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The isolates were tested for ESCR and CR by a disk-diffusion test; a confirmatory extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) test was performed by combinational disk-diffusion test with clavulanic acid. The resistant isolates were screened for ESBL (blaTEM, blaSHV, blaCTX-M, and blaOXA-1), AmpC blaCMY-2, and carbapenemase (blaKPC, blaNDM, and blaOXA-48) genes using PCR. Results: S. enterica was isolated from chicken giblets (13/129) and the 13 isolates were ESCR. Based on the confirmatory ESBL test and CR, the 13 isolates were classified into the following resistance phenotypes: ESBL-producing and CR (n=4), ESBL-producing (n=1), non-ESBL-producing and CR (n=6), and non-ESBL-producing (n=2). All the five isolates with ESBL-producing phenotype carried predominantly blaTEM, blaSHV, and blaCMY-2. Regardless of being phenotypically CR, none of these isolates carried any of the tested carbapenemase genes. Surprisingly, the isolates with non-ESBL phenotype were found to carry blaTEM, blaSHV, and blaCMY-2. The blaKPC was present mainly in the isolates with non-ESBL and CR phenotypes. Interestingly, two isolates of the non-ESBL and CR phenotype showed resistance to cefepime, the fourth generation cephalosporins. Salmonella was also recovered from the water tanks (2/7) and the workers (2/16). The four isolates were ESCR and showed a non-ESBL-producing and CR phenotype; they harbored blaTEM, blaSHV, blaOXA-1, and blaKPC. The blaCMY-2 was found in one isolate from water and one from humans. All Salmonella isolates carried invA, stn, ompA, and ompF. Conclusion: Virulent ESCR S. enterica were identified in retail shops. The isolates carried blaCMY-2 and ESBL-genes, with a high proportion showing CR. Transmission of such strains to humans through food leads us to recommend regular inspection of retail outlets for antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
