CPE Culture from Companion Animal Rectal Swabs or Feces v1

Jackie Dietrich Stephen Cole

Abstrak

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) are one of the most urgent threats to human healthcare globally. Our study aimed at optimizing the chromogenic agar method of screening for CPE with and without selective enrichment to isolate CPE from animal feces. The selective enrichment step did not result in any increased recovery of CPE from companion animals with NDM-5 E. coli, which suggests that enrichment broth may not be necessary for outbreak surveillance testing. Therefore, the selective enrichment step is optional, however, this method may not be generalizable to the detection of all types of CPE in fecal specimens from companion animals.
