The study developed an effective enrichment method for tet(X) detection using PCR and Sanger sequencing. Results showed a 2.26% prevalence of tet(X4)-positive Escherichia coli, with 96.6% exhibiting resistance to tigecycline. This specific screening strategy will aid in advancing knowledge of tet(X) and tigecycline resistance mechanisms.
Objectives: To develop an effective enrichment method for tet(X) detection, we performed PCR and Sanger sequencing to screen and confirm the presence of tet(X) gene. Methods: Species were identified by MALDI-TOF MS analysis. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of common antibiotics were determined by broth microdilution and interpreted according to the CLSI guidelines and EUCAST breakpoints. Results: We obtained 29 (2.26%, 29/1284) tet(X4)-positive Escherichia coli, and 96.6% of those (28 isolates) exhibited resistance to tigecycline. Conclusion: This specific screening strategy for functional tet(X) mediating tigecycline resistance will be useful to facilitate development and advancement of our knowledge of tet(X).
