Antimicrobial Susceptibility and Frequency of bla and qnr Genes in Salmonella enterica Isolated from Slaughtered Pigs

Alyzza Marie B. Calayag et al.

Summary: A study in the Philippines revealed that a significant portion of Salmonella enterica isolates from pork carry antimicrobial resistance genes, with some showing multidrug resistance. This raises concerns about antimicrobial use in the Philippine hog industry and the potential transmission of resistance genes to other bacteria.

An analysis of national action plans on antimicrobial resistance in Southeast Asia using a governance framework approach

Alvin Qijia Chua et al.

Summary: The issue of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in ASEAN countries requires strengthening in areas such as accountability, sustained engagement, equity, behavioral economics, sustainability plans and transparency, international collaboration, as well as integrating the environmental sector. By enhancing these areas and adopting best practices, it will drive improved policy formulation and effective implementation.
