Risk factors for the abundance of antimicrobial resistance genes aph(3′)-III, erm(B), sul2 and tet(W) in pig and broiler faeces in nine European countries

Dongsheng Yang et al.

Summary: This study revealed the levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in European pig and broiler farms and identified potential risk factors. Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to assess the relative abundance of four antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in fecal samples. The study found a significant association between ARG abundance and antimicrobial use (AMU) levels, as well as the impact of on-farm biosecurity measures on ARG abundance. Variance component analysis showed that AMR variation was primarily influenced by differences between countries, farms, and on-farm AMU.

Determinants for antimicrobial resistance genes in farm dust on 333 poultry and pig farms in nine European countries

Roosmarijn E. C. Luiken et al.

Summary: This study quantified absolute and relative levels of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in airborne farm dust using qPCR. It found that farm dust is a large reservoir of ARGs, which can potentially transmit to bacteria in other reservoirs. The study also identified different pathways that contribute to shaping the dust resistome in livestock farms.

Metagenomics-Based Approach to Source-Attribution of Antimicrobial Resistance Determinants - Identification of Reservoir Resistome Signatures

Ana Sofia Ribeiro Duarte et al.

Summary: Metagenomics can reveal the genetic content of microbiota in different environments, with great potential for investigating the transmission of foodborne hazards. This study demonstrates the application of metagenomics in attributing antimicrobial resistance sources, showing a potential relationship between fecal resistome components and specific reservoirs.

Risk Factors for Antimicrobial Resistance in Turkey Farms: A Cross-Sectional Study in Three European Countries

Mayu Horie et al.

Summary: This study identified significant positive associations between antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and antimicrobial usage (AMU) in turkey farms, particularly for specific antimicrobial classes. However, no evidence was found that lower biosecurity increases the abundance of AMR. Using multiple complementary AMR detection methods provided insights into the associations between AMU and AMR at turkey farms.
