The Status Of Antimicrobial Resistance In Campylobacterspp. Isolated From Animals And Humans In Southeast Asia: A Review, Saeid Jafari, Mahdi Ebrahimi, Taradon Luangtongkum

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

Campylobacteris considered to be a major foodborne pathogen associated with human bacterial gastroenteritis in many parts of the world. Southeast Asia (SEA) has been challenging for infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance in recent years. Antibiotic resistance in Campylobacterisolates has been reported in humans and animals in this region.Since the SEA region is one of the top tourist destinations of the world, the provision of safe food is of importance for the travel-related foodborne infections. Therefore, it is essential to elucidate the status of antibiotic resistance of Campylobacterspp. in the SEA region to reduce the impact of infection and to implement …

Acinetobacter baumanniihas emerged as a nosocomial pathogen and considered as a major cause of hospital acquired infections. While A. baumanniiin humans have been extensively studied in various situations, the study of A. baumanniiin companion animals is still limited. The aim of this study was to examine the presence and antimicrobial resistance profile of A. baumanniiisolates from companion rabbits. A total of 17 nasal swab from rabbit carcasses were obtained. A. baumanniiwas detected in 23.53% (4/17) of the samples and all the isolates exhibited resistance to chloramphenicol, erythromycin, spectinomycin and trimethoprim. Fifty percent of the isolates (2/4) were multidrug resistance (MDR) …
