Abstract

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance in enteric bacteria is a global public health concern. There is a national and global call to reduce the dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant commensal and pathogenic bacteria and improve antimicrobial stewardship programs. Longitudinal monitoring of antimicrobial resistance patterns in commensal E. coli of swine at slaughter plants is an effective way to evaluate changes in antimicrobial resistance and identify emerging trends.
