RESUMO

Background: Raoultella is a Gram-negative bacteria, which commonly occur in the natural environment such as water, soil and on plants. In recent years, Raoultella spp. gained more interest. There is also an increasing number of publications describing mainly clinical cases involving these bacteria. Identification of Raoultella spp. is difficult due to a phylogenetic relationship with Klebsiella spp. Purpose: Available biochemical tests do not always allow for their identification to species. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate selected methods of identification of Raoultella spp. and their differentiation from genus Klebsiella. Materials and Methods: In this evaluation three methods were used such as manual test ID32E (bioMérieux), automatic test VITEK2 Compact (bioMérieux) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) method (Bruker). Results: Good identification of the species was obtained for 81.4% of the strains in the ID32E test, 93.3% in VITEK2 Compact test, and 97.4% in MALDI-TOF MS method, respectively. Conclusion: It was established that MALDI-TOF MS method is reliable in identifying genus Raoultella.

RESUMO

We investigated the distribution of commensal staphylococcal species and determined the prevalence of multi-drug resistance in healthy cats and dogs. Risk factors associated with the carriage of multi-drug resistant strains were explored. Isolates from 256 dogs and 277 cats were identified at the species level using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation-time of flight mass spectrometry. The diversity of coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CNS) was high, with 22 species in dogs and 24 in cats. Multi-drug resistance was frequent (17%) and not always associated with the presence of the mecA gene. A stay in a veterinary clinic in the last year was associated with an increased risk of colonisation by multi-drug resistant Staphylococci (OR = 2.4, 95% CI: 1.1~5.2, p value LRT = 0.04). When identifying efficient control strategies against antibiotic resistance, the presence of mechanisms other than methicillin resistance and the possible role of CNS in the spread of resistance determinants should be considered.
