The mechanisms of drug resistance of clinical isolate, Vibrio (V.) parahaemolyticus ST550, resistant to chloramphenicol (CP), aminoglycoside antibiotics (AGs) and β‐lactam antibiotics were investigated. The mechanisms of resistance to CP, AGs and β‐lactam antibiotics were dependent on chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT), aminoglycoside‐3″‐adenylyltransferase AAD(3″) and aminoglycosides‐3′‐phosphotransferase APH(3′) and TEM type penicillinase, respectively.
