Abstract
A serious emerging problem worldwide is increased antimicrobial resistance. Acquisition of coding genes for evasion methods of antimicrobial drug mechanisms characterizes acquired resistance. This phenomenon has been observed in Enterobacteriaceae family. Treatment for bacterial infections is performed with antibiotics, of which the most used are beta-lactams. The aim of this study was to correlate antimicrobial resistance profiles in Enterobacteriaceae by phenotypic methods and molecular identification of 14 beta-lactamase coding genes. In this study, 70 exclusive isolates from Brazil were used, half of which were collected in veterinary clinics or hospitals Phenotypic methodologies were used and real-time PCR was the molecular methodology used, through the Sybr Green system. Regargding the results found in the tests it was observed that 74.28% were resistant to ampicillin, 62.85% were resistant to amoxicillin associated with clavalunate. The mechanism of resistance that presented the highest expression was ESBL (17.14%). The genes studied that were detected in a greater number of species were blaGIM and blaSIM (66.66% of the samples) and the one that was amplified in a smaller number of samples was blaVIM (16.66%). Therefore, high and worrying levels of antimicrobial resistance have been found in enterobacteria, and a way to minimize the accelerated emergence of their resistance includes developing or improving techniques that generate diagnoses with high efficiency and speed.

Abstract
Enterobacteriales is an order of bacteria responsible for community and hospital-acquired infections related to high rates of antimicrobial resistance and increased treatment costs, morbidity, and mortality globally. The aims of this study were to analyze the frequency of the resistance genes detected and distribution over the years and sources of isolation in sequenced Enterobacteriales strains isolated in Brazil and available at the Pathogen Detection website. The presence of resistance genes was analyzed in 1,507 whole-genome sequenced strains of 19 Enterobacteriales species. A total of 58.0% of the strains presented resistance genes to at least one antimicrobial class and 684 strains presented a multidrug-resistant (MDR) profile. Resistance genes to 14 classes of antimicrobials were detected. Aminoglycosides presented the most prevalent and diverse resistance genes, while the sulfonamide resistance gene, sul2, was the most prevalent among the strains studied. The presence of resistance genes from 14 different antimicrobial classes, the high levels of MDR strains, and the detection of genes related to clinical and veterinary-used drugs reinforce the necessity of more efficient control measures. Moreover, it warns for the necessity of the rational use of antimicrobials in veterinary and clinical situations in Brazil, since contaminated food may act as a vehicle for human infections.
