Characteristics of antimicrobial resistance in <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolated from retail meat products in North Carolina
PLOS ONE, 19(1).
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.

Inclusion of Dried or Wet Distillers' Grains at Different Levels in Diets of Feedlot Cattle Affects Fecal Shedding of Escherichia coli O157:H7
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 76(21), 7238–7242.
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / microbiology; Animal Husbandry; Animals; Bacterial Shedding / physiology; Cattle / metabolism; Cattle / microbiology; Cattle / physiology; Cattle Diseases / metabolism; Cattle Diseases / microbiology; Cattle Diseases / prevention & control; Diet / veterinary; Edible Grain / microbiology; Escherichia coli Infections / microbiology; Escherichia coli Infections / prevention & control; Escherichia coli Infections / veterinary; Escherichia coli O157 / isolation & purification; Escherichia coli O157 / physiology; Feces / microbiology; Male
TL;DR:
The prevalence levels of E. coli O157:H7 and the numbers of high shedders were not different between diets with 0 or 20% DG; however, cattle fed 40% DG had a higher prevalence and more high-shedder than cattle fed 0 or20% DG (P ≤ 0.05), and fecal shedding was associated with the DG inclusion level.

Occurrence of tcrB, a Transferable Copper Resistance Gene, in Fecal Enterococci of Swine
Foodborne Pathogens and Disease, 7(9), 1089–1097.
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / administration & dosage; Bacterial Proteins / genetics; Copper / administration & dosage; DNA, Bacterial / analysis; Diet; Drug Resistance, Microbial / genetics; Enterococcus / genetics; Enterococcus faecalis / genetics; Enterococcus faecium / genetics; Feces / microbiology; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Polymerase Chain Reaction; Selection, Genetic / drug effects; Swine / microbiology
TL;DR:
The potential link between tcrB and antibiotic resistance genes and the propensity of enterococci to transfer tcr B to other strains raises the possibility that copper supplementation may exert selection pressure for antibiotic-resistant enterococCI.

MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Husbandry; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Cattle / microbiology; Diet / veterinary; Escherichia coli O157 / isolation & purification; Feces / microbiology; Female; Prevalence; Random Allocation; Salmonella / isolation & purification; Solubility; Zea mays
TL;DR:
Evaluation of the effect of feeding DG and dry-rolled corn, alone or in combination, on fecal prevalence of E. coli O157:H7 in finishing cattle found no association between either DG or DRC and Salmonella prevalence, contrary to previous observations.

Effects of feeding wet corn distillers grains with solubles with or without monensin and tylosin on the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibilities of fecal foodborne pathogenic and commensal bacteria in feedlot cattle1
Journal of Animal Science, 86(5), 1182–1190.
author keywords: antimicrobial feed additive; antimicrobial susceptibility; cattle; distillers grain; Escherichia coli O157
MeSH headings : Animal Feed; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena / drug effects; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena / physiology; Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / administration & dosage; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Cattle / metabolism; Cattle / microbiology; Colony Count, Microbial; Drug Resistance, Bacterial / genetics; Edible Grain; Enterococcus / drug effects; Enterococcus / growth & development; Escherichia coli / drug effects; Escherichia coli / growth & development; Escherichia coli O157 / drug effects; Escherichia coli O157 / growth & development; Feces / microbiology; Female; Food Handling / methods; Microbial Sensitivity Tests / veterinary; Monensin / administration & dosage; Monensin / pharmacology; Prevalence; Random Allocation; Salmonella / drug effects; Salmonella / growth & development; Solubility; Tylosin / administration & dosage; Tylosin / pharmacology; Zea mays
TL;DR:
Results from this study indicate that wet distillers grains with solubles (WDGS) may have an effect on the prevalence of E. coli O157 and the concentration of selected antimicrobial resistance genes, but does not appear to affect antimicrobial susceptibility patterns in Enterococcus and genericE.
