Plasmid sequence dataset of multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales isolated from hospital effluents and wastewater treatment plant.

ABSTRACT: We present plasmid sequences of 21 multidrug resistant isolates of Enterobacterales belonging to Escherichia coli (n=10), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n=9), Klebsiella oxytoca (n=1), and Citrobacter freundii (n=1). The isolates originated from effluent collected from hospital sewer pipes and from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in a southwestern Hungarian city. Isolation was carried out using eosin methylene blue agar supplemented with ceftriaxone and the isolates were identified with MALDI-TOF MS. Screening for multidrug resistance was conducted by determining susceptibility to four chemical classes namely, beta-lactams, aminoglycoside, fluoroquinolone, and sulfonamide. Plasmid DNA was isolated by alkaline lysis method using the Monarch plasmid DNA miniprep kit f
