Abstract
Campylobacter upsaliensis is an emerging pathogen implicated in human gastroenteritis. Contact with pets, especially dogs, has been identified as a risk factor. Fourteen (14) C. upsaliensis isolates were obtained from household dogs in Metro Manila, Philippines. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) determined high resistance to ciprofloxacin (92.86%), erythromycin (100%), and tetracycline (100%). Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) identified 14 novel sequence types and 1 novel clonal complex, which is suggestive of a high genotypic diversity within C. upsaliensis. AST results indicate that antimicrobial stewardship and education of pet owners should be emphasised in veterinary practice.
