Rapid detection of enterobacteria in wastewater treated by microalgal consortia using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP).

ABSTRACT: In the present study, nine Enterobacteriaceae species present in wastewater were isolated and identified, and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was developed for the detection of Enterobacteriaceae by designing primers based on the mcr-1, KPC, OXA-23, and VIM genes, which are recognized markers of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) transmission during microalgal bioremediation treatment. The developed assays successfully detected four strains positive for mcr-1 gene-asociated resistance (Acinetobacter baylyi, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Morganella morganii, and Serratia liquefaciens), three strains for KPC gene-associated resistance (Acinetobacter sp., Escherichia coli 15499, and Morganella morganii), seven strains for OXA-23 gene-associa
