| contents | We describe the antibiotic resistance profiling of bacterial isolates collected from Ny-Alesund, Arctic, as part of the Indian Arctic Summer Expedition 2009. It was interesting to note that the bacterial isolates collected from the Arctic showed multidrug resistance. 32% of the isolates were found to be multi- drug resistant with several combinations of antibiotics. The 16S rRNA sequencing results shows a diverse group of bacteria belonging to Phyla Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Bacteriodetes and their relatedness was studied by phylogenetic analysis. While analysing the plasmid profiling, the most resistant two strains of Pseudomonas migulae showed multiple plasmids of varying sizes ~5.2-5.3 kb and ~9.5 kb. The extent and frequency of multidrug resistance in the polar bacteria deserves close monitoring and efforts to understand the various molecular mechanisms of drug resistance and control the spread of antibiotic resistance in polar environment is called for. |
