Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella is a threat to humanity. Salmonellosis is the main foodborne zoonosis caused by egg consumption and the second zoonosis with the most hospitalizations and deaths. Chickens are its main reservoir and it is estimated that 40.2 % are carriers. The objective of this work was to determine the presence of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella Enteritidis strains in the egg content of chickens housed in conventional cages on technified farms in Sinaloa, Mexico. The isolation was on Hektoen enteric agar and XLD, the identification of S. Enteritidis was by biochemical tests and PCR, and the determination of antimicrobial resistance was by the disk diffusion method. 0.625 % (2/320) of eggs tested positive for Salmonella Enteritidis, both strains resistant to beta-lactams and quinolones and 1 of them also presented resistance to nitrofurans (multi-resistant). This is the first report of S. Enteritidis in egg contents on farms in Sinaloa. This reflects the presence of Salmonella in hens, which could put the egg consuming population of Sinaloa at risk of zoonosis. In addition, the resistance of these bacteria to antibiotics indicates vulnerability to medical treatments.
