Abstract: This study studies chloramphenicols resistance genes
of Salmonella enterica serovar Indiana isolated from chicken in China.
Salmonella samples were collected from chicken hatcheries, farms and slaughter
houses located in Shandong Province. Salmonella was isolated, identified and
tested for drug susceptibility. The primers were designed to detect the resistance
genes of chloramphenicol by PCR. The results showed that researchers isolated
23.28% strains of Salmonella enterica serovar Indiana. Resistance rates
to chloramphenicol of Salmonella enterica serovar Indiana from hatcheries,
farms, slaughter houses were chloramphenicol (50, 83.33, 93.30%), florfenicol
(83.33, 100, 100%), thiamphenicol (63, 65, 77%), respectively. During the 80
resistant strains of chloramphenicol, 54 strains were detected catA1
genes, 74 strains were detected floR genes and the 5 strains were detected
cmlA genes. These result indicated that resistance rate of Salmonella
enterica serovar Indiana from three sources to chloramphenicol were different.
Interestingly, researchers found that 4 isolates carried catA1, floR
and cmlA genes from the farms (2), slaughter houses (2) and 49 isolates
carried catA1 and floR genes from the hatchery (4), farms (19)
and slaughter houses (26).
