Occurrence of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in agricultural soils and antibiotic resistance properties.
Abstract: The occurrence of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was monitored in organic amendments and agricultural soils from various sites in France and Tunisia. S. maltophilia was detected in horse and bovine manures, and its abundance ranged from 0.294 (±0.509) × 10(3) to 880 (±33.4) × 10(3) CFU (g drywt)(-1) of sample. S. maltophilia was recovered from most tested soil samples (104/124). Its abundance varied from 0.33 (±0.52) to 414 (±50) × 10(3) CFU (g drywt)(-1) of soil and was not related to soil characteristics. Antibiotic resistance properties of a set of environmental strains were compared to a clinical set, and revealed a high diversity of antibiotic resistance profiles, given both the numbers of resistance and the phenotypes. Manure strains showed resistance phenotypes, with most of the strains resisting between 7 and 9 antibiotics. While French soil strains were sensitive to most antibiotics tested, some Tunisian strains displayed resistance phenotypes close to those of clinical French strains. Screening for metal resistance among 66 soil strains showed a positive relationship between antibiotic and metal resistance. However, the prevalence of antibiotic resistance phenotypes in the studied sites was not related to the metal content in soil samples.

This study examines the presence and antibiotic resistance of the bacterium Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in agricultural soils and organic amendments in France and Tunisia.
Occurrence of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia
- Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, a bacteria that can cause infections in humans, was detected in horse and bovine manures and in most of the soil samples taken from various sites in France and Tunisia.
- The presence and abundance of S. maltophilia was not found to be related to the specific characteristics of the soil.
Antibiotic Resistance Properties
- The study also looked at the antibiotic resistance properties of environmental strains of S. maltophilia compared to a clinical set.
- There was a wide diversity in the resistance profiles, with some strains showing resistance to several antibiotics.
- Manure strains were found to resist between 7 and 9 antibiotics.
- French soil strains were mostly sensitive to the antibiotics tested, while some Tunisian strains showed high levels of resistance akin to the French clinical strains.
Correlation Between Antibiotic and Metal Resistance
- The study also observed a positive correlation between resistance to antibiotics and resistance to metals among the 66 soil strains that were tested.
- Despite this correlation, the prevalence of antibiotic resistance phenotypes in the test sites did not correlate with the metal content in soil samples.
Implications
- This research provides valuable insights into the risk of antibiotic resistance among environmental bacteria in agricultural settings.
- The findings suggest more investigations are needed to understand the potential public health threats arising from the use of manure in agriculture, especially when it contains antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as S. maltophilia.
