OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.The study is focused on both species identification and determination of antimicrobial resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci (ČoNS) isolated from the meat of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus), Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma), and Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus). Seventy-eight isolates of Staphylococcus spp. were identified with the help of genus-specific PCR method. All isolates were coagulase-negative, and DNAse activity was only confirmed in four of them. Using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, the following species of staphylococci were confirmed: S. warneri (52%), S. epidermidis (33%), S. haemolyticus (6.4%), S. pasteuri (3.8%), S. sciuri (1.2%), S. capitis (1.2%), and S. hominis (1.2%). The results showed that MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry is useful, accurate, and rapid method for species identification of staphylococci. Resistance to seven antibiotics was determined with the help of agar dilution method. The rate of antimicrobial resistance differed significantly among species of staphylococci tested. Most strains showed resistance against ampicillin (87%) and susceptibility to gentamicin (96%). Resistance to cefoxitin was observed in only one S. warneri strain. Furthermore, 83% of staphylococcal isolates were simultaneously resistant to two or more antibiotics. Although CoNS in fish is not a food poisoning issue, fish may serve as indicators of the spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria/genes in the environment.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishSeventy-eight isolates of staphylococci obtained from the meat of Theragra chalcogramma, Scomber scombrus, and Clupea harengus were identified and tested in this study. 16S rDNA sequence specific for the genus Staphylococcus was detected in all isolates with the help of PCR method. All of 78 isolates were coagulase-negative, and DNAse activity was only confirmed in four of them. The following species of staphylococci were identified using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry: S. warneri (52%), S. epidermidis (33%), S. haemolyticus (6.4%), S. pasteuri (3.8%), S. sciuri (1.2%), S. capitis (1.2%), and S. hominis (1.2%). Antimicrobial resistance to seven antibiotics was determined in each isolate with the help of agar dilution method. In general, resistance against ampicillin was observed in majority of isolates (87%). On the contrary, the best ssusceptibility was determined to gentamicin (96%). Only one S. warneri strain showed resistance to cefoxitin. Furthermore, 83% of staphylococcal isolates were simultaneously resistant to two or more antibiotics.

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practiceThe output highlights the need of monitoring antimicrobial resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci in the meat of retail marine fish, such as mackerels and herrrings, which can serve as significant source of transferable genetic elements encoding resistance to antibiotics used for treatment of disease in humans and animals.. The results of this study confirmed that MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry can be successfuly used for the preliminary species identification of staphylococcii present in food.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThe methods used to isolate and identify bacterial food isolates as well as to testing their susceptibility to antimicrobials can be demonstrated and directly implemented in the postgradual educational process.
