Abstract
ABSTRACT
Six imported pigs originating from Guangdong, Henan, and Hunan provinces in China during October 2015 to February 2017 were cultured and found to be positive for meropenem-resistant
Escherichia coli
. The samples yielded 9
E. coli
isolates of diverse sequence types carrying
bla
NDM-5
on IncX3 (8 isolates from 5 farms) or IncFII (1 isolate from 1 farm) plasmids. The
mcr-1
gene was coharbored by 4 isolates. The IncX3 plasmids (∼46 kb) carrying
bla
NDM-5
were identical or nearly identical to each other.
