Abstract
One hundred and eighteen sputum specimens suspected of Mycobacterium abscessus infection were collected. Species level identification of M. abscessus was performed by rpoB sequencing. Clonality analysis was done by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for M. abscessus. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed for clarithromycin, amikacin, ciprofloxacin and moxifloxacin. Altogether 128 isolates were obtained and were subjected to rpoB gene sequencing for definite identification. Among them 59 were identified as M. abscessus, and these included 22 (37.28%) isolates of M. abscessus subsp. abscessus, 22 (37.28%) isolates of M. abscessus subsp. massiliense, and 15 (25.42%) isolates of M. abscessus subsp. bolletii. All 59 M. abscessus complex isolates were analyzed by MLST in this study. Certain sequence types (STs) were identified among the 59 isolates and were specific for each subspecies. Two STs (ST40 and ST33) were specific to M. abscessus subsp. abscessus, one ST (ST20) was specific to M. abscessus subsp. bolletii, and one ST (ST15) was specific to M. abscessus subsp. massiliense. In antibiotic resistance, clarithromycin susceptibility testing of 22 M. abscessus subsp. abscessus strains detected 15 (68.18%) resistant strains, while among 22 M. abscessus subsp. massiliense strains 5 (22.72%) exhibited resistance, and among 15 M. abscessus subsp. bolletii 8 (53.33%) were resistant. Our study revealed a significant level of antibiotic resistance in isolates of the M. abscessus complex.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
