Number of cephalosporins- and carbapenems-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates from aquaculture workers and inhabitants of aquaculture surrounding areas. Panel I: Hand swab and faecal samples from aquaculture workers (n = 30) were examined. a and b illustrate the number (n) and species of Enterobacteriaceae isolated from hand swabs and faecal samples, respectively. c and d illustrate the number (n) of resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates from hand swabs and faecal samples, respectively. Panel II: Faecal samples from inhabitants (n = 45) were examined. e illustrates the number (n) and species of Enterobacteriaceae isolated. f shows the number (n) of resistant Enterobacteriaceae. The strains are grouped based on resistance against carbapenems (CRE) and cephalosporins (CEPH: FOX, CAZ, CTX, and CRO) as follow: CRE and all CEPH (isolates resistant to at least one of the tested carbapenems and all tested cephalosporins); CRE and 2 CEPH (isolates resistant to at least one of the tested carbapenems and two of the tested cephalosporins); CEPH (isolates resistant to 2 or more of the tested cephalosporins but not to carbapenems). Each phenotype is marked with colour and its resistance genotypes are also provided; carbapenemase (blaKPC, blaOXA-48, and blaNDM) and β-lactamase (blaCTX-M-15, blaSHV, blaOXA-1, blaTEM, and blaPER-1) genes. (n) represents numbers of resistant strains
