Characterization of multidrug-resistant, qnrB2-positive and extended-spectrum- -lactamase-producing Salmonella Concord and Salmonella Senftenberg isolates

Abstract

We detected the first plasmid-mediated MDR Salmonella isolates in the Netherlands harbouring both qnr and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes. In Salmonella Senftenberg one large plasmid (IncHI2) and in Salmonella Concord two large plasmids (IncHI2 and IncA/C) were responsible for the multidrug resistance.
