1 Environmental sources of Campylobacter infections in Luxembourg Priorité Nationale C09/BM/09 Sur les traces du Campylobacter au Luxembourg Catherine Ragimbeau

2 What sort of germ is Campylobacter? A fragile bacteria A pathogenic bacteria spiral-shaped bacteria microaerophilic limited tolerance to oxygen fastidious organisms sensitive to oxygen, drying, freezing, salting, and acid conditions very heat-sensitive destroyed T > 60 C not able to grow and multiply in foods. thermotolerant group C. jejuni C. coli : T op = 42 C body temperature of birds = well adapted to birds C. jejuni = the leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the world The infective dose is small: 500 cells can be enough zoonose animals Human transmission direct = contact with infected animals or contaminated carcasses indirect = consumption of contaminated foods or water Campylobacteriosis symptoms: 2 to 5 days after infection duration of symptoms: 7-10 days

3 *5 countries were not included in the calculation => surveillance not covering the whole population Report , rate = 126/ Overall rate Europe 2012 = 68,35* highest rates 2012 C. coli 2013 C. jejuni

4 and with a closer look? By analysing DNA to create a genetic fingerprint DNA extraction MLST + Sequencing of 9 genes Allele No sequence International database I D C A R D Campylobacter jejuni Isolation: 2012/04/05 Origin: poultry Resistance Quinolone 2 gyra 1 pora 90 unk 8 pgm 7 tkt 56 gly 4 glt 3 gln 12 asp Genotype Simplified name

5 EPIFOOD Project Minimum spanning tree of MLST data for the 208 isolates of C. jejuni. Human N = 124 Bovine N = 48 Poultry, N = 36 Ragimbeau et al Reservoir 40%? CE Environmental route

6 HypoCamp project: Samples and data collected Questionnaires Risk factor survey Case control study veterinary lab. Reference labs ANSES ISP 22 isolates isolates Molecular typing 2140 isolates alleles Sequencing of 9 genes hospitals,clinical lab. year 1 => 687 isolates Year 2 => 610 isolates 1297 isolates 53 sites 920 isolates collected Water cycle

7 Human cases distribution over the time/ Genotypes endemic ~ 47% of cases epidemic micro-épidémie ~ 3 % of cases sporadic ~ 50% of cases 2 years scale

8 EPIFOOD Campylobacter jejuni Genotype Human Gyrase Human cases distribution Top 20 genotypes Poultry Mostly imported Dosmestic mammals Surface Waters Distri E = Endémique C = Cluster Comment T86I S22G E Milking cow and stream E+C C C E Cow and donkey E C Mini-outbreak E+C C Milking cow and stream E E E+C E+C C Sewage C Miini outbreak - turkey E = vs sensible to Quinolone E Sewage E C 1 dog 1 cat-1 bovin in C Mini outbreak E Turkey Huge diversity: 677 genotypes for 1300 human strains Top 20 genotypes account for 30 % of cases!! Half of the genotypes previously identified in 2006 => persistent genotypes 75 % of these reoccuring genotypes => poultry related (direct or indirect link with poultry) 12/20 reoccuring genotypes ( = 64 % of human cases) Genetic profile Quinolone

9 Reoccuring genotypes of C. jejuni the suggested scenario 33 of genotypes linked to 20% of the total clinical isolates Waste Water Treatment Plant Recipients and disseminators of Campy Risk? No geographical hotspots? Bathing waters all negative 57% effluents + Surface waters 70% of all the sites Campylobacter + Reservoir 5% Campylobacter +

10 In 2014, what s going on? 2014 rate > 155 cases/ Characterization by Whole Genome Sequencing Identification of a new genotype
