Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health problem that requires publicly
available tools for rapid analysis. To identify AMR genes in whole-genome sequences, the …

Background Salmonella is a leading cause of food-borne illness. The emergence of
antimicrobial-resistant salmonella is associated with the use of antibiotics in animals raised for food; …

We conducted a retrospective study of Escherichia coli isolates recovered from human and
food animal samples during 1950–2002 to assess historical changes in antimicrobial drug …

A total of 825 samples of retail raw meats (chicken, turkey, pork, and beef) were examined for
the presence of Escherichia coli and Salmonella serovars, and 719 of these samples were …

A total of 133 Salmonella isolates recovered from retail meats purchased in the United
States and the People's Republic of China were assayed for antimicrobial susceptibility, the …

The South China Sea offers an excellent case for studying source-to-sink transport processes
of fluvial sediments among the global marginal seas. This study synthesizes existing clay …

A total of 361 Escherichia coli O157 isolates, recovered from humans, cattle, swine, and
food during the years 1985 to 2000, were examined to better understand the prevalence of …

Emergence of bacterial antimicrobial resistance has become a serious problem worldwide.
While much of the resistance observed in human medicine is attributed to inappropriate use …

Escherichia coli isolates from diseased piglets (n = 89) and chickens (n = 71) in China were
characterized for O serogroups, virulence genes, antimicrobial susceptibility, class 1 …

Laboratory-based in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing is the foundation for guiding anti-infective
therapy and monitoring antimicrobial resistance trends. We used whole-genome …
