- Genomic epidemiology and resistome dynamics of species in a Portuguese Open Air Laboratory: the emergence of the FRI-8 carbapenemasePublication . Teixeira, Pedro; Ramos, Miguel; Rivière, Rani; Azevedo, Mónica; Ferreira, Mário; Cano, Maria Manuela; Vieira, Patrícia; Reis, Lígia; Matias, Rui; Rodrigues, João; Menezes, Carina; Rosado, Tânia; Sequeira, António; Moreira, Olga; Ruppitsch, Werner; Cabal-Rosel, Adriana; Mo, Solveig Sølverød; Dias, Elsa; Woegerbauer, Markus; Caniça, Manuela; Manageiro, VeraInterconnected reservoirs contribute to the global spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), including carbapenem- and colistin-resistant , highlighting the need for a One Health approach. We assessed the genomic epidemiology, diversity and AMR mechanisms of spp. across interconnected human, animal, plant, and environmental reservoirs in a Portuguese Open Air Laboratory. Over a one year monitoring period, samples from 12 different compartments were collected and processed using selective media to isolate spp., which were subjected to antibiotic susceptibility testing, whole-genome sequencing and subsequent analyses to identify AMR determinants, characterize plasmids and phylogenetic relationships. We established a collection of 61 isolates spanning nine species and 32 sequence types, including 16 novel ones, across nine compartments (river water, wastewater, soil, manure, feed, air, farmers, pigs, wild animals), reflecting the diversity and ubiquity of species. Core-genome analysis revealed eight genetic clusters, suggesting clonal transmission across compartments. In total, 29 antibiotic resistance genes were detected across all isolates. Notably, this is the first documentation of -harbouring in European environmental settings and the first to describe , and genes in Portugal. was detected in all isolates ( = 17), located on four different IncFII(Yp) plasmids, and in an isolate, flanked by IS3 family transposases. and the -harbouring isolate were resistant to carbapenems. A gene was identified in an isolate on an IncFII(pECLA) plasmid. These plasmids exhibited high sequence similarity with global counterparts, indicating potential for horizontal gene transfer. Other antimicrobial resistance genes included , , and . Our findings underscore the importance of as vectors for AMR and the critical role of environmental compartments in its dissemination, reinforcing the importance of adopting a One Health approach to fully understand AMR dynamics.
- Investigation of 29 Antimicrobial Compounds in Soil Using Newly Developed UHPLC-MS/MS MethodPublication . Gbylik-Sikorska, Małgorzata; Gajda, Anna; Felipe-Sotelo, Monica; Caniça, Manuela; Cabal-Rosel, Adriana; Tenson, Tanel; Kořínková, Marta; Arbo, Krõõt; Kisand, Veljo; Rab, Gerhard; Brandtner, MartinWhile the prudent and reasonable use of veterinary antimicrobial agents in food-producing animals is necessary, researchers over the decades have shown that these antimicrobial agents can spread into the environment through livestock manure and wastewater. The analysis of the occurrence of antimicrobial compounds in soil samples is of a great importance to determine potential impacts on human and animal health and the environment. In this study, an affordable, rugged and simple analytical method has been developed for the determination of twenty-nine antimicrobial compounds from five different classes (tetracyclines, fluoro(quinolones), macrolides, sulfonamides and diaminopirimidines). Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) with extract filtration combined with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was the best strategy for the simultaneous determination of all analytes. The developed method was validated according to the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/808. The limit of detections (LODs) ranged from 0.5 to 2.0 µg/kg, while the limit of quantitation (LOQ) was established at 1.0 to 20.0 µg/kg. The developed method was successfully applied for the determination of antimicrobial residues in one hundred and eighteen soil samples obtained from four European countries (Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia and Portugal). Doxycycline in the concentration levels of 9.07 µg/kg-20.6 µg/kg was detected in eight of the analysed samples. Samples were collected from areas where natural fertilizers (swine or cow manure) were applied. Our method can be efficiently used to monitor anti-microbial compounds in soil samples.
