Resumo: | Introduction: During the last few decades, various organic micropollutants, including antibiotics, have been released into the environment because of anthropogenic activities. These drugs are poorly biodegradable and very persistent, such that when they accumulate in aquatic systems, they provide a favorable environment for the selection and proliferation of resistant microorganisms. Objective: Evaluate the antimicrobial resistance profile of isolated strains of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus spp taken from the Marambaia river and its adjacent beach, in Balneário Camboriú, in the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina. Method: The sampling was divided into six collections, with a total of thirty-six samples, across all seasons of the year. Subsequently, microbiological analyses and antibiotic sensitivity tests were performed. Data analysis was performed using the software programs Excel and Past, version 4.03, through exploratory and descriptive analyses. Results: The results showed the presence of total and thermotolerant coliforms at all sampling points, indicating the influence of the river outflow on the beach. Moreover, the concentrations of E. coli found in the sampling points are not compliant with Conama Resolution 357/2005, except for the points Marambaia 1 and Praia 3. The MAR index for Staphylococcus showed high risks for multidrug resistance, with no differences for the time and place of collection. Ninety-six strains were resistant to at least one antibiotic. The isolated strains showed greater resistance to antibiotics erythromycin and clindamycin. Conclusions: The presence of E. coli is worrisome because it is a thermotolerant coliform, indicative of recent fecal contamination. The presence of resistance mechanisms in these bacteria can modify the local microbiota, putting the health of the population at risk. As for Staphylococcus spp., through the evaluation of the MAR index, high risks of multidrug resistance were found for most of the sampled locations and at any time of collection. In addition, few strains were sensitive to all antibiotics tested. The resistance mechanisms that occur in Gram-positives, despite differing from those that occur in Gram-negatives, are equally worrisome, whether from a microbiologicalpoint of view or in terms of public health. |

Entre eles, se destacam os antibióticos, substâncias pouco biodegradáveis e muito persistentes que, ao se acumularem nos sistemas aquáticos, proporcionam um ambiente favorável à seleção e proliferação de microrganismos resistentes a antimicrobianos. Objetivo: Avaliar o perfil de resistência aos antimicrobianos em cepas de Escherichia coli e Staphylococcus spp., isoladas no rio Marambaia e na praia adjacente, em Balneário Camboriú, Santa Catarina. Método: A amostragem foi dividida em seis coletas, totalizando 36 amostras e abrangendo todas as estações do ano. Foram realizadas análises microbiológicas fenotípicas, incluindo morfologia e testes de susceptibilidade aos antimicrobianos. A análise de dados foi realizada com o auxílio dos softwares Excel e Past, versão 4.03, através de análise explorativa e descritiva. Resultados: Foi verificada a presença de coliformes totais e termotolerantes, em todos os pontos amostrais, indicando a influência da desembocadura do rio na praia, além disso, a concentração de E. coli encontrada nos pontos amostrais está em desacordo com a Resolução Conama n° 357/2005, exceto para os pontos Marambaia 1 e Praia 3. De forma geral, cinco cepas apresentaram resistência a pelo menos três antibióticos, sendo a mais expressiva a ampicilina, com 14 cepas resistentes. O índice MAR para Staphylococcus spp. mostrou altos riscos para multirresistência, não apresentando diferenças para os fatores momento e local de coleta, sendo que 96 cepas apresentaram resistência para pelo menos um antibiótico. Foi encontrado um número maior de cepas resistentes aos antimicrobianos eritromicina e clindamicina. Conclusões: A presença de E. coli é preocupante por se tratar de um coliforme termotolerante, indicativo de contaminação fecal recente. A existência de mecanismos de resistência nessas bactérias pode modificar a microbiota local, colocando em risco a saúde da população. Quanto aos Staphylococcus spp., através da avaliação dos dados do índice MAR, verificou-se riscos altos de multirresistência para a maioria dos locais amostrados e em qualquer momento das coletas. Além disso, poucas cepas foram sensíveis para todos os antibióticos testados. A análise do antibiograma revelou que 96 cepas apresentaram resistência para pelo menos uma classe de antimicrobiano. Os mecanismos de resistência que ocorrem em Gram-positivos, apesar de divergirem daqueles ocorridos em Gram-negativos, são igualmente preocupantes, seja do ponto de vista icrobiológico ou em questões de saúde pública.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2022-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/202610.22239/2317-269x.02026Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 10 No. 3 (2022): August; 122-132Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 10 Núm. 3 (2022): Agosto; 122-132Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 10 n. 3 (2022): Agosto; 122-1322317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporenghttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/2026/1446https://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/2026/1478Copyright (c) 2022 Anne Caroline Demeneck Lima, Charrid Resgalla Junior, Marcus Adonai Castro Da Silvahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLima, Anne Caroline DemeneckResgalla Junior, CharridSilva, Marcus Adonai Castro da2023-06-27T15:15:33Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/2026Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T15:15:33Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false |
