Development of Antibiotic Resistance Through The Food We Eat

Microorganisms are ubiquitous and some can cause diseases in humans and plants. The overuse of antibiotics in agriculture and human medicine has led to the development of antibiotic resistance. Through interviews and testing antibiotic resistance in bacterial strains found in food and people living near farms, the study found high levels of resistance to several common antibiotics in bacteria isolated from food and residents. The transfer of antibiotic resistance genes between microorganisms occurs through processes like conjugation, transduction, and transformation. The overuse of antibiotics in medicine and agriculture contributes to the spread of antibiotic resistance in microbial populations.

Microorganisms are Ubiquitous

3
How can we be harmed?

4
Dangers brought by Microorganisms
- They serve as pathogens which causes diseases

e.g. Cholera, Typhoid

- Causes diseases even on plants

e.g. citrus canker

- Development of Antibiotic Resistance

5
Methodology

Interview Stable isotopes Antibiotic resistance test

- Experience - Stable isotopes of 13C and -Two bacterial strains of


15N were analyzed in corals Bacillus niabensis and Bcillus
- Education along a gradient from the pumilus
farms
- Feeding practices - Disc Diffusion method

- Tetracycline, Rifampicin
and Vancomycin

Results
Stable isotopes Antibiotic Resistance test

How do we acquire Antibiotic
Resistance?
Transduction, Transformation, Conjugation

8
Conjugation

Involves physical contact


between donor and recipient
cells and can mediate the
transfer of genetic material
between domains.

9
Transduction

Introduction of new genetic


material into a bacterium by a
bacteriophage that has replicated
within a donor microorganism
and packaged random DNA
fragments

10
Transformation

Involves the uptake of naked DNA


from the environment and has the
potential to transmit DNA between
very distantly related organisms.

11
What are the things we do that
make us acquire antibiotic
resistance?

Results

Out of 59 strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus

- 98.3% was resistant to Ampicillin


- 62.7% was resistant to Cephalothin
- 76.3% was resistant to Streptomycin
- 61.0% was resistant to Rifampin
- 100% was resistant to Vancomycin

Results

- Butter 4.86 µg kg1 , sour cream 3.5 µg kg1 , white cheese 2.36 µg kg1
and whey 0.14 µg kg1. From the results obtained, it was observed that
CAP is more accumulated in dairy products with high fat content
