| Abstract | In recent years, bacterial resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics has risen dramatically in Escherichia coli isolated from animals that could pass through the food chain to humans. One hundred eighteen fecal samples of Sparus aurata were tested for extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-containing E. coli recovery. Susceptibility to 16 antimicrobial agents was performed by disk diffusion. ESBL-phenotypic detection was carried out by double-disk test, and the presence of genes encoding TEM, OXA, SHV, and CTX-M type beta-lactamases was studied by polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. The detection of other antimicrobial resistance mechanisms and phylogenetic groups was also performed in recovered isolates as well as their clonal diversity by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Five of the 118 fecal samples harbored ESBL-positive E. coli isolates (4.2%), and one isolate per sample was completely characterized. These five ESBL-positive E. coli isolates contained the bla(TEM-52) or bla(SHV-12) genes, as well as a variety of other resistance genes (cmlA, tetA, aadA, sul1, sul2, and sul3). Four isolates harbored class 1 integrons with the following gene cassettes in their variable region: dfrA1 + aadA1 (one isolate) and sat + psp + aadA2 (three isolates). Four unrelated pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns were identified among the five ESBL-positive isolates, and they were ascribed to phylogroups A and B1. The intestinal tract of S. aurata might constitute a reservoir of ESBL-producing E. coli isolates. |

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.
