Background Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are increasing in Denmark and Europe. Linezolid vancomycin-resistant (LVRE) of concern, as treatment options limited. Vancomycin-variable (VVE) harbour the vanA gene complex but phenotypically vancomycin-susceptible. Aim The aim was to describe clonal shifts for VRE VVE between 2015 2022 investigate genotypic linezolid resistance among VVE. Methods From 2022, 4,090 Danish clinical isolates were whole genome sequenced. We extracted vancomycin...
A surge in gonorrhoea Denmark has occurred since 2022, a 46% increase from 2021. National surveillance, leveraging mandatory reporting and epidemiological data, highlights three distinct clades linked to heterosexual transmission. Despite the rise, these exhibit high susceptibility, contrasting MSM-associated strains. Geographical hotspots age-specific patterns further illuminate transmission dynamics. The combination of genomic data provides novel insights into evolving landscape...
Mycoplasma (M.) bovis is an important pathogen of cattle implicated in a broad range clinical manifestations that adversely impacts livestock production worldwide. In the absence safe, effective commercial vaccine Europe, reported reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials for this organism has contributed difficulties controlling infection. Despite global presence, some countries have only recently experienced outbreaks pathogen. present study, M. isolates collected Denmark between 1981 and...
The aim of the present study was to identify animal prevalence and environmental reservoir livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) in mink farms. LA-MRSA on constitutes a human health hazard farmers farm workers, who handle animals are at risk bites scratches from colonized sites. primary route colonization is suspected be by ingestion contaminated pig by-products. We performed cross-sectional with repeated measurements during May-July 2017. A total 644...
Optimizing antimicrobial dosage regimens and development of breakpoints for susceptibility testing are important prerequisites rational use. The objectives the study were (1) to produce MIC data four mink pathogens (2) employ these support tentative epidemiological cut-off values (TECOFFs), which may be used future mink-specific dosages breakpoints. Broth microdilution was establish distributions 322 bacterial isolates clinical origin from six European mink-producing countries. included...
Streptococcus phocae infection has been described in salmon, sea otters, and several families of pinnipeds. The pathology the infected animals mainly located respiratory tract reproductive system, with indications septicemia. In this study, we report finding S. diagnostic material from three unrelated cases farmed mink. Since initially pinnipeds, two isolates wild harbor seals were included. All originated Denmark. To our knowledge, is first (three mink, seals) necropsied, samples collected...
Abstract The genetic diversity of Vibrio anguillarum pJM1-like plasmids was investigated. Plasmids were isolated from 18 V. serovar O1 strains collected different geographic locations and fish species. sequenced compared with the complete sequence published virulence plasmid pJM1. All contained approximately 65 kbp all encoded genes responsible for anguibactin iron sequestering system. highly conserved but minor differences observed in some genes. A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)...
For the last 13 years, fur industry in Europe has suffered from epidemic spouts of a severe necrotizing pyoderma. It affects all species currently farmed for and causes animal welfare problems significant losses to farmers. The causative agent this disease was identified as Arcanobacterium phocae. Previously, bacterium been isolated seals other marine mammals, apparently causing wound lung infections. Attempts at antibiotic treatment have unsuccessful current advice on preventing is cull...
