Isolates to Antimicrobial Agents in vitro
Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute, Shiraz, Iran Poultry Research Centre, Veterinary School, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran Agriculture School, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran Mycoplasma Reference Lab. of Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute, Karaj, Iran Abstract: The in vitro activities of aivlosin tylosin tiamulin, erythromycin, oxytetracycline, spectinomycin,
lincomycin, lincomycin-spectinomycin (1:2) and enrofloxacin were determined against twenty-eight isolates
of Mycoplasma gallisepticum and 4 isolates of Mycoplasma synoviae using microbroth dilution method. The
isolates showed various susceptibilities to antimicrobial agents. Aivlosin, lincomycin-spectinomycin (1:2),
tylosin, tiamulin, enrofloxacin and also lincomycin were commonly more effective against these field isolates.
However, aivlosin was the most effective drugs against Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma
synoviae
as its MIC was the lowest of all. Oxytetracycline, erythromycin and spectinomycin were not effective
against all isolates, as their MICs for some of isolates were extremely high. The MIC of erythromycin and
oxytetracycline were distributed across a broad range. Resistant strains to two mentioned antibiotics were
obtained from the field.

Like other countries in Iran chicken primary and On the other hand many antimicrobial agents, such as multiplier breeders and hatcheries generally have oxytetracycline, amino glycosides lincosamides, adopted various mycoplasma control programs. In spite fluoroquinolones and tiamulin have been shown to of these preventive programs, a lot of broiler and layer possess different degrees of in vitro activity against flocks will be affected by those organisms during their various veterinary mycoplasmas (Bradbury et al., 1994; production periods.

testing of mycoplasmas for sensitivity to antibiotics, forexample, Lin had been used agar dilution method to DISCUSSION
determine susceptibility of avian mycoplasmas to The purpose of the study was to determine the in vitro antibiotics (Lin, 1987) Boughton also demonstrated susceptibilities of Mycoplasma gellisepticum and tylosin susceptibility in 10 isolates of Mycoplasma Mycoplasma synoviae, which isolated from broiler gallisepticum tested by disc diffusion techniques chicken farms, Fars, Iran. in vitro susceptibility testing of mycoplasmas presents several problems that make In this research the MICs were determined by a glucose standardization of methods difficult. Because no single metabolic inhibition method. Therefore, a micro-broth medium is suitable for in vitro testing of all species, we dilution procedure was chosen as the basic test design, had to use a different medium for each of the two because it was relatively simple and quick to perform species. It was recommended to add NAD to mediums and required only small volumes of media and other for cultivating Mycoplasma synoviea. A pH indicator such necessary materials such as different antibiotics. The as phenol red visualizes the pH shift due to biochemical test was also easy to read, since inhibition of activities of multiplying mycoplasmas. One of the major mycoplasma growth by antibiotics could be deduced by ways for Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma the inability of the organism to ferment glucose and thus synoviae control is antibiotic therapy of affected flocks to produce a color change in a phenol red indicator in and infected hatching eggs (Alls et al., 1963). In Iran the medium from red to orange-yellow and generally antibiotic administration has been accepted and more acceptable between mycoplasma scientists. As different antibiotics are available and administered mentioned before, replicate doubling dilutions of against mycoplasma infection for several decades. This antibiotics were made in 150 microliter volumes of is important to know that administration of antibiotics mycoplasma broth in sterile 96-well U-bottomed micro despite of dosage and duration of administration could titration plates (Hirose et al., 2003; Gautier-Bouchardon not eradicate these organisms from the infected flocks.
et al., 2002; Hannan et al., 1997a; Whithear et al., 1983) But antibiotics are able to reduce the severity of clinical using 8-channel micropipette (Ependorff, Germany). The signs and lesions, decrease egg production losses and test was read when the phenol red indicator in the other economic losses such as downgrading medium of a culture control (without antibiotic) had carcasses. Proper antibiotic therapy could significantly changed from deep red (pH 7.8) to orange-yellow (pH 7).
reduce population of Mycoplasma gallisepticum and It is believed that the number of viable mycoplasmas Mycoplasma synoviea in the poultry respiratory tract.
inoculated in each test of sensitivity to antibiotic was very Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea important to reliability of the test. In this way to determine have shown sensitivity in vitro to several antimicrobials the concentration of each isolates in the mycoplasma broth and for making more accuracy the colony counting fluoro-quinolones and others, but also are resistant to procedure was done (Hirose et al., 2003; Zanella et al., other antibiotics such as cephalosporins and penicillins 1998). Some of other scientists preferred to determine which act by inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis.

(Hannan et al., 1997a,b; Whithear et al., 1983). There appears to be no general agreement among There is a wide range of bacteria and mycoplasma mycoplasmologist about standard procedures for susceptibility to antibiotics in different area and testing of mycoplasmas for sensitivity to antibiotics.
countries. On the other hand another problem with Int, J. Poult. Sci., 7 (11): 1058-1064, 2008 antibiogram test of mycoplasma is the different growth less sensitive to tylosin. However, in our research the Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea According to the results of our research, 28 isolates of isolates were more sensitive to tylosin than Mycoplasma gallisepticum and four isolates of Mycoplasma synoviea showed various susceptibilities Aivlosin, lincomycin-spectinomycin (1:2), tylosin, to the nine different antimicrobial agents which used in tiamulin, enrofloxacin and also lincomycin were commonly very effective in the field isolates. These The breakpoints of MICs of each antimicrobial agent findings are similar to the reports of Hannan (2000) and group: oxytetracycline, macrolides (aivlosin, tylosin and Zanella (1998). Although, macrolides and oxytetracycline erythromycin), aminoglycoside (including spectino- were considered to be effective against mycoplasmas, mycin), lincosamides (lincomycin), fluoroquinolone these drugs (erythromycin and oxytetracycline) did not (enrofloxacin) and tiamulin were 1.0, 0.5-2.0, 2.0-4.0 and prove to be effective against Mycoplasma synoviea 1-2 µg/mL, 0.5-2.0 and 0.1-0.05 µg/mL, respectively isolates. These MICs are higher than breakpoints of (Hirose et al., 2003). When the MIC of the oxytetracycline macrolides (0.5-0.2 µg/mL) or oxytetracycline (1 µg/mL).
was =1.0 µg/mL the isolate was considered susceptible, According to the commercial costs of used antibiotics when the MIC was >1.0 µg/mL, the isolate was against Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea tetracyclines such as oxytetracyline is not In contrast to Mycoplasma gallisepticum isolates, all of expensive and have been previously used in large Mycoplasma synoviea isolates have been shown scales to control and treat suspected broiler flocks to resistance to oxytetracycline and almost erythromycin.
mycoplasma and E. coli infections and now observed This finding is in complete agreement with research that mycoplasma showed highly resistance to these results of Bradbury et al. (1994) and Whithear et al. kinds of antibiotics. On the other hand, aivlosin are more (1983). Also, they used micro-broth dilution procedure expensive then its use has limited. Also, aivlosin hasbeen more recently introduced to producer. Also, our for MIC detection in their research. The results also in field experiences support these findings.
agreement with reports of Kleven and Anderson (1971) However, aivlosin was one of the most effective drugs and also Bradbury (1994) in the case of MICs of against Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma lincomycin-spectinomycin in comparison with synoviea as its MIC was the lowest of all oxytetracycline, oxytetracycline. Results of the present study agreed with erythromycin and spectinomycin were not effective those of Tanner and Wu (1992) who used broth micro- against all isolates, as its MIC for some of isolates was dilution test and showed Mycoplasma gallisepticum extremely high. The MIC of erythromycin and isolates were susceptible to lincomycin-spectinomycin oxytetracycline were distributed across a broad range.
and in the case of erythromycin and tylosin who found Resistant isolates to two mentioned antibiotics were the susceptibility varied among their isolates that is similar to our findings. But they reported their isolates Results showed that the sensitivity of isolates to were sensitive to oxytetracycline. On the other hand spectinomycin and licomycin lonely was less than their Bradbury (1994) reported that tylosin had the highest sensitivity to lincomycin-spectinomycin in 1:2 activity followed closely by lincomycin, oxytetracycline, spectinomycin. Erythromycin was less effective, but like Sometimes the efficacy of various antibiotics towards our findings lincomycin-spectinomycin had good activity Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea in against Mycoplasma gallisepticum. the field is equal but some antibiotics show better According to our research aivlosin had greater activity advantages. Enrofloxacin still retains the acceptable during 9 antibiotics used with a range 0.012-0.042 advantage because it has broader spectrum of activity µg/mL. The reason may be aivlosin is a newer antibiotic than the macrolides, being active also against a lot of which is recently used in Iran against Mycoplasma gram-negative bacteria, which very often complicate gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea. However, Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviea according to our knowledge the use of aivlosin in poultry is relatively limited in Europe and not at all in the USA.
In some cases when an appropriate antibiotic, on the Comparison of MIC values with tylosin and tilmicosin basis of antibiogram test, administrates the results may would be interesting. Zanella et al. (1998) investigating be out of our prediction and treatment results are not development antibiotics resistance in Mycoplasma satisfy. It seems that some of avian respiratory viruses gallisepticum, also reported that cross-sensitivity tests such as infectious bronchitis virus newcastle disease using strains with induced resistance to the different virus and pneumoviruses and also E. coli may interfere antibiotics demonstrated that those which were resistant with Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma to tylosin were also resistant to other macrolides, where synoviea antibacterial treatments (Kleven, 1998a, b).
as strains made resistant to erythromycin appeared only The treatment of these cases may be difficult because of Int, J. Poult. Sci., 7 (11): 1058-1064, 2008 some viral coinfections such as infectious bronchitis, Conclusion: Whichever method of control is chosen, the
avian influenza or infectious bursal disease and then need for effective antibiotics is apparent. According to infection may remain for a long period. This finding is in our findings drug resistance must be taken into agreement with other reports (Kleven and Anderson, consideration in mycoplasma and this fact stresses the 1971; Bradbury et al., 1994). Therefore, some of desirability for a choice between several antibiotics. The countries prefer to eradicate mycoplasma infections in vitro sensitivity of 28 different isolates of Mycoplasma from their flocks by test and slaughter strategy. gallisepticum and 4 isolate Mycoplasma synoviea havebeen tested using 9 different antibiotics includingaivlosin and lincomycin-spectinomycin (1:2).
