    Surface Microbiota and Associated Staphylococci of Houseflies (musca Domestica) Collected From Different Environmental Sources
    (Elsevier, 2022) Sudağıdan, Mert; Özalp, Veli Cengiz; Can, Özge; Eligül, Hakan; Yurt, Mediha Nur Zafer; Tasbasi, Behiye Busra; Acar, Elif Esma; Kavruk, Murat; Koçak, Oner
    Houseflies (Musca domestica) are important mechanical vectors for the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms. In this study, 129 houseflies (69 males and 60 females) were collected from 10 different environmental sources and a laboratory population was used. The surface microbiota of houseflies was identified by Next-Generation Sequencing. Staphylococci from the surfaces of houseflies were selectively isolated and their virulence genes, antibiotic susceptibilities, biofilm formation, and clonal relatedness were determined. Metagenomic analysis results demonstrated that Staphylococcus, Bacillus, and Enterococcus were mostly present on the surface of houseflies at the genus level. Additionally, the isolated 32 staphylococcal strains were identified as Staphylococcus sciuri (n = 11), S. saprophyticus (n = 9), S. arlettae (n = 6), S. xylosus (n = 4), S. epidermidis (n = 1) and S. gallinarum (n = 1). tetK, tetM, tetL, ermC, msrAB, and aad6 genes were found to carry by some of the staphylococcal strains. The strains were mostly resistant to oxacillin, penicillin, and erythromycin and three strains were multi-drug resistant. There was a statistical difference between housefly collection places and antibiotic resistance of isolated staphylococci to penicillin G, gentamicin, and erythromycin (p < 0.05). Biofilm test showed that 17 strains were strong biofilm formers, and it plays important role in the transmission of these bacteria on the surface of houseflies. Staphylococcal strains showed extracellular proteolytic and lipolytic activity in 31 and 12 strains, respectively. Closely related species were found in PFGE analysis from different environmental sources. By this study, surface microbiota and carriage of pathogenic staphylococci on the surfaces of houseflies and their virulence properties were elucidated.

    Detection of the Contamination Sources of Listeria Monocytogenes in Pickled White Cheese Production Process Line and Genotyping With the Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis Method
    (TUBITAK, 2016) Telli, Nihat; Güner, Ahmet; Soyer Dönmez, Ferda; Özdemir, Özgün Öykü
    This study was conducted to determine the contamination sources, serotyping profiles, and antibiotic resistance patterns of Listeria monocytogenes isolated during the production of pickled white cheese. The genetic-relatedness of the isolates to EGD SLCC (5835) (1/2a, lineage II) and ATCC (13932) (4b, lineage I) reference strains was also determined with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) as a result of digestions with AscI and ApaI enzymes. Samples were collected from 16 different points in the production process of 4 different plants at 3 different times. Among the 192 samples examined, 17 (8.85%) were determined to be contaminated with Listeria spp. Three isolates (3.53%) obtained from raw milk, wall/ground, and press cases were identified as L. monocytogenes via the conventional culture method and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction. These isolates were found to belong to serotype 4b. According to antibiotic resistance testing against 10 antibiotics (ampicillin, gentamicin, erythromycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, cefalotin, streptomycin, vancomycin, penicillin, and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim), it was determined that isolates from raw milk and press cases were resistant to erythromycin. PPGE band patterns of the isolates displayed indistinguishable with AscI and 80%-94% homology with ApaI. The isolates were observed to display high homology to ATCC (13932) and lower homology to EGD SLCC (5835) obtained by both enzymes.
