Overview

Characterizes antimicrobial resistance and biofilm in bacteria from Sapajus libidinosus, highlighting ecological health concerns.

Key Points

  • The study aims to investigate antimicrobial resistance and biofilm formation in bacteria isolated from Sapajus libidinosus during rehabilitation.
  • Collected rectal swabs from Sapajus libidinosus
  • Identified isolates using MALDI-TOF MS
  • Conducted antimicrobial susceptibility testing
  • Performed molecular detection of resistance genes
  • Conducted biofilm assays
  • Found 63.2% of isolates were Staphylococcus spp. and 36.8% Mammaliicoccus sciuri
  • The highest resistance was to penicillin (63.2%) and tetracycline (57.9%)
  • Detected resistance genes include tetM (36.8%) and blaZ (26.3%)
  • 94.7% of isolates produced weak biofilm, with only one showing moderate production
  • 21.1% of isolates exhibited multidrug resistance
