Abstract

An experiment was conducted to compare the impact of antimicrobial treatments on the susceptibility of , and , and on the diversity of broiler microbiota. Specific-pathogen-free chickens were first orally inoculated with strains of and . Birds were then orally treated with recommended doses of oxytetracycline, sulfadimethoxine/trimethoprim, amoxicillin or enrofloxacin. Faecal samples were collected before, during and after antimicrobial treatment. The susceptibility of , and strains isolated on supplemented or non-supplemented media was studied and PCR-capillary electrophoresis single-strand conformation polymorphism (CE-SSCP) profiles of the gut microbiota were analysed. Enrofloxacin-resistant were selected in the enrofloxacin-treated group and showed the Thr86Ile mutation in the gene. Acquisition of the gene in isolates was significantly more frequent in birds given oxytetracycline. No impact of amoxicillin treatment on the susceptibility of could be detected. Ampicillin- and sulfadimethoxine/trimethoprim-resistant were selected in amoxicillin-treated broilers, but no selection of the inoculated vancomycin-resistant could be detected, although it was also resistant to tetracycline and sulfadimethoxine/trimethoprim. PCR-CE-SSCP revealed significant variations in a few peaks in treated birds as compared with non-treated chickens. In conclusion, antimicrobial treatments perturbed chicken gut microbiota, and certain antimicrobial treatments selected or co-selected resistant strains of and .
