Antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli and its correlation with antimicrobial use on commercial poultry farms in Bangladesh Universiteit Gent

This research quantified antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in E. coli isolates from poultry fecal and environmental samples in Bangladesh and explored their association with antimicrobial use (AMU). We screened 725 fecal and 250 environmental samples from 94 conventional broilers and 51 Sonali farms for E. coli presence using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. AMU data ...
