The presence of antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus spp. and Escherichia coli in smallholder pig farms in Uganda

K. Ikwap et al.

Summary: Resistance to important antibiotics was common in healthy pigs from Uganda, and the presence of MRSA was demonstrated in Ugandan pig herds. Multi-drug resistant isolates of Staphylococcus spp. and E. coli were found in over half of the herds.

Multidrug-Resistant, Including Extended-Spectrum Beta Lactamase-Producing and Quinolone-Resistant, Escherichia coli Isolated from Poultry and Domestic Pigs in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Zuhura I. Kimera et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the phenotypic profile of MDR Escherichia coli isolated from poultry and domestic pigs, with a higher occurrence rate observed in domestic pigs. The E. coli isolates showed high resistance to multiple antibiotics, particularly tetracycline, nalidixic acid, ampicillin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. Additionally, resistance was significantly higher in ESBL producers and quinolone-resistant isolates compared to non-ESBL producers and non-quinolone-resistant E. coli.

Antimicrobial resistance at the livestock-human interface: implications for Veterinary Services

U. Magnusson et al.

Summary: The emergence of antimicrobial resistance is a major global public health issue, possibly linked to antimicrobial use in food-producing animals. Current global antimicrobial use data relies on modeling estimates, while antimicrobial resistance prevalence data are limited.

Supply Chain and Delivery of Antimicrobial Drugs in Smallholder Livestock Production Systems in Uganda

Michel Mainack Dione et al.

Summary: This study assessed the veterinary drug supply chain in Uganda, identifying constraints such as low education levels, poor drug management practices, weak policy enforcement, and lack of stakeholder awareness. Future interventions to reduce misuse of antimicrobial drugs in livestock production systems should include capacity building and targeted policy advocacy efforts.
