Monitoring antimicrobial resistance in humans and animals in Europe.

Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin

Comite Editorial / Editorial Committee.
PMID: 12631824
Euro Surveill. 1997 Mar;2(3):21-22. doi: 10.2807/esm.02.03.00176-en.

Concern about possible transfer of bacterial resistance to antibiotics from animals to humans is growing at an international level. This is illustrated by the ban of avoparcin use as a growth promoter in livestock which will take effect in...

Severely impaired production performance in broiler flocks with high incidence of Clostridium perfringens-associated hepatitis.

Avian pathology : journal of the W.V.P.A

Lovland A, Kaldhusdal M.
PMID: 19184877
Avian Pathol. 2001 Feb;30(1):73-81. doi: 10.1080/03079450020023230.

Historical meat inspection data and production performance data collected from a large poultry processing plant in Norway were used to study the association between Clostridium perfringens infection and production performance in commercial broiler flocks. The study period was limited...

The Risk of Some Veterinary Antimicrobial Agents on Public Health Associated with Antimicrobial Resistance and their Molecular Basis.

Frontiers in microbiology

Hao H, Sander P, Iqbal Z, Wang Y, Cheng G, Yuan Z.
PMID: 27803693
Front Microbiol. 2016 Oct 18;7:1626. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2016.01626. eCollection 2016.

The risk of antimicrobial agents used in food-producing animals on public health associated with antimicrobial resistance continues to be a current topic of discussion as related to animal and human public health. In the present review, resistance monitoring data,...

Effect of four antibiotic additives on the Salmonella contamination of chicks protected by an adult caecal flora.

Avian pathology : journal of the W.V.P.A

Humbert F, Lalande F, L'hospitalier R, Salvat G, Bennejean G.
PMID: 18680055
Avian Pathol. 1991 Dec;20(4):577-84. doi: 10.1080/03079459108418797.

Avoparcin (10 mg/kg feed), bacitracin (50 mg/kg), flavomycin (5 mg/kg) and virginiamycin (20 mg/kg) were tested for their synergy or antagonism on the protective effect of an adult caecal flora administered to 1-day-old chicks. The chicks were challenged experimentally...

Methane production by fermentor cultures acclimated to waste from cattle fed monensin, lasalocid, salinomycin, or avoparcin.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Varel VH, Hashimoto AG.
PMID: 16346156
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1982 Dec;44(6):1415-20. doi: 10.1128/aem.44.6.1415-1420.1982.

The ability of microorganisms to ferment waste from cattle fed monensin, lasalocid, or salinomycin to methane was determined. Continuously mixed anaerobic fermentors with 3-liter working volumes at 55 degrees C were used; fermentors were fed once per day. Initially,...

Vancomycin resistant enterococci in farm animals - occurrence and importance.

Infection ecology & epidemiology

Nilsson O.
PMID: 22957131
Infect Ecol Epidemiol. 2012;2. doi: 10.3402/iee.v2i0.16959. Epub 2012 Apr 19.

The view on enterococci has over the years shifted from harmless commensals to opportunistic but important pathogens mainly causing nosocomial infections. One important part of this development is the emergence of vancomycin resistance enterococci (VRE). The term VRE includes...

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci: recent advances in genetics, epidemiology and therapeutic options.

Drug resistance updates : reviews and commentaries in antimicrobial and anticancer chemotherapy

Malathum K, Murray BE.
PMID: 11504495
Drug Resist Updat. 1999 Aug;2(4):224-243. doi: 10.1054/drup.1999.0098.

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) have gained much attention in the last decade. Currently, there are five known types of vancomycin resistance based on genes encoding ligase enzymes that the organisms use to produce their cell wall precursors, namely, VanA, VanB,...

Antibiotic use in animal feed and its impact on human healt.

Nutrition research reviews

Barton MD.
PMID: 19087443
Nutr Res Rev. 2000 Dec;13(2):279-99. doi: 10.1079/095442200108729106.

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria that cause disease in man is an issue of major concern. Although misuse of antibiotics in human medicine is the principal cause of the problem, antibiotic-resistant bacteria originating in animals are contributory factors, with some...
