| Descripción : | The number of cases of human salmonellosis associated with reptiles has increased in recent years due to the use of these animals as pets. Thus, the following study analyzes the results of 59 articles in order to determine the prevalence of infection by Salmonella spp. and identify the most frequent serotypes. The results of the analysis of a total of 7503 reptiles are presented, where it was possible to detect Salmonella spp. out of 2541 animals, which represents an infection prevalence of 33.86 percent. The analysis of the prevalence of infection by Salmonella spp. Depending on the suborder: turtle, lizards and snakes, it was possible to determine that snakes are the most infected with 51.73 percent possibly from their diet, which includes live rodents or raw meat which can be a direct transmission of the bacteria. The prevalence in the animals that are in captivity is higher than 3.19 percent of the animals in freedom, and this difference is significant (Chi square, p equal 0.05), suggesting that the stress and density of animals per area influences the susceptibility to the infection. More than 100 serotypes were found among them, the most frequently being: Amsterdam 44.05 percent, Saintpaul 32.46 percent, Thompson 28.55 percent and Adelaide 27.77 percent. Additionally, the percentage of isolates resistant to antibiotics was determined, and 97.40 percent of the strains are resistant to penicillin, 3.05 percent are resistant to ciprofloxacin, which is recommended as the drug of first choice for the treatment of non-salmonellosis. typhoid in humans. This systematic review is the first on the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in reptiles and confirms that the handling of reptiles or their objects represent a risk of salmonella transmission to humans and therefore is a matter of public health interest. |
