| Abstract | This study is focused on real-time detection of gyrA mutations and of the presence of class I integrons in a panel of 100 veterinary isolates of Salmonella enterica from farm animals. The isolates were selected on the basis of resistance to nalidixic acid, representing a variety of the most prevalent serotypes in England and Wales. In addition, organic solvent (cyclohexane) resistance in these isolates was investigated in an attempt to elucidate the presence of efflux pump mechanisms. The most prevalent mutation among the isolates studied was Asp87-Asn (n = 42), followed by Ser83-Phe (n = 38), Ser83-Tyr (n = 12), Asp87-Tyr (n = 4), and Asp87-Gly (n = 3). Two distinct subpopulations were identified, separated at the 1-mg/liter breakpoint for ciprofloxacin: 86% of isolates with mutations in codon 83 showed MICs of ≥1 mg/liter, while 89.8% of isolates with mutations in codon 87 presented MICs of ≤0.5 mg/liter. Cyclohexane resistance was more prevalent among Ser83 mutants than among Asp87 mutants (34.7 and 4%, respectively), and in 79% of isolates that presented both gyrA mutations and cyclohexane resistance, the level of ciprofloxacin resistance was ≥2.0 mg/liter. Thirty-four isolates contained class I integrons, with 71% of the S. enterica serovar Typhimurium isolates and 6.9% of isolates belonging to other serotypes containing such elements. The methods used represent sensitive ways of investigating the presence of gyrA mutations and of detecting class-I integrons in Salmonella isolates. The results can be obtained in less than 1 h from single colonies without the need for purifying DNA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
