摘要: The globally increasing incidence of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic microorganisms such as Shigella, a cause of human acute gastrointestinal infections, calls for developing effective alternatives. In this study, the antibiotic resistance pattern, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-production, and molecular characteristics of 70 multidrug-resistant isolates belong to the two most frequent species of Shigella genus, that is, Shigella sonnei (44 isolates) and Shigella flexneri (26 isolates) were investigated. These isolates were used to evaluate both specificity and activity of Shigella-specific bacteriophages, vB_SflS-ISF001, vB_SsoS-ISF002, and a cocktail of both. Twelve out of the 21 tested resistance genes were detected in the isolates. About 59% of S. sonnei and 46% of S. flexneri isolates were identified as ESBL producers. The bacteriophages showed a high efficiency of plating (EOP >= 0.5) in about 75% of the isolates. Moreover, the growth of >85% of the isolates was inhibited by the phage cocktail of vB_SflS-ISF001 and vB_SsoS-ISF002. The phage cocktail was effective against a wide range of ESBL-positive and -negative isolates of S. sonnei and S. flexneri. Therefore, this phage cocktail has the potential to inhibit or significantly decrease the spread of drug-resistant Shigella in humans, food chains, and water/wastewater sanitation systems.
