Characteristics of antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolated from retail meat products in North Carolina

PLOS ONE, 19(1), e0294099.

By: M. Aworh n, S. Thakur n, C. Gensler n, E. Harrell n, L. Harden n, P. Fedorka-Cray n, M. Jacob n

Ed(s): M. Osman

MeSH headings : Animals; Humans; Meat Products; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; North Carolina; Escherichia coli / genetics; Multilocus Sequence Typing; Drug Resistance, Bacterial / genetics; Chickens
topics (OpenAlex): Antibiotic Resistance in Bacteria; Pharmaceutical and Antibiotic Environmental Impacts; Bacteriophages and microbial interactions
TL;DR: The lack of an association between MDR E. coli in retail meat and antibiotic use claim, including those with no indication of antimicrobial use, suggests that additional research is required to understand the origin of resistance. (via Semantic Scholar)
