Resumo(s)
Escherichia coli among humans and its detection in livestock,
companion animals, and wildlife is a major cause
for concern. Hence, it is imperative to identify and
explore its dissemination traits. If CTX-M-15–producing
E. coli continues to spread among different environments,
therapeutic options in veterinary and human medicine will
be greatly narrowed. E. coli is one of the gram-negative
bacteria most frequently isolated from bottlenose dolphins. However, few studies about antimicrobial drug–resistant bacteria in dolphins have been published. We
explored dissemination linkages between CTX-M-15–producing
E. coli isolated from a marine dolphin (Tursiops
truncatus) and clinical isolates collected during the same
period from humans all over Portugal. (...)
