Supplementary feeding stations for conservation of vultures could be an important source of monophasic Salmonella typhimurium 1,4,[5],12:i:-
(Elsevier, 2018-04-27)
Vultures are nature's most successful scavengers, feeding on the carcasses of dead animals present in the field. Availability of domestic carrion has been unstable due to rapidly changing agro-grazing ...
Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of zoonotic enteropathogens in gulls from southern Europe
(Elsevier, 2020-10-19)
Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. are the two most frequent zoonotic bacteria involved in human enteric infections in the European Union. Both enteropathogens have been isolated from a diversity ...
Multi-isotopic assessments of spatio-temporal diet variability: the case of two sympatric gulls in the western Mediterranean
(Wiley, 2018-11-15)
In predator populations, changes in foraging behaviour in response to spatio-temporal variability of prey are expected. Prey depletion might cause trophic niche widening in generalist species, but not ...
Eurasian griffon vultures carry widespread antimicrobial resistant Salmonella and Campylobacter of public health concern
(Elsevier, 2022-07-06)
The global emergence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) strains of Salmonella and Campylobacter is a serious public health concern. Both bacteria are leading causes of human gastrointestinal foodborne ...
Population Structure, Antimicrobial Resistance, and Virulence-Associated Genes in Campylobacter jejuni Isolated From Three Ecological Niches: Gastroenteritis Patients, Broilers, and Wild Birds
(Frontiers Media, 2018-08-02)
Campylobacter jejuni is the causal agent of the food-borne infection with the highest incidence in Europe. Both poultry and wild birds are a major reservoir. To gain insight into the population structure, ...
Chicken liver is a potential reservoir of bacteriophages and phage-derived particles containing antibiotic resistance genes
(Wiley Open Access, 2022-04-29)
Poultry meat production is one of the most important agri-food industries in the world. The selective pressure exerted by widespread prophylactic or therapeutic use of antibiotics in intensive chicken ...
Global monitoring of antimicrobial resistance based on metagenomics analyses of urban sewage
(Nature Research, 2019-03-08)
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we use metagenomic analysis of ...
Differential distribution of the wlaN and cgtB genes, Associated with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, in Campylobacter jejuni isolates from humans, broiler chickens, and wild birds
(MDPI, 2020-02-26)
Campylobacter jejuni causes campylobacteriosis, a bacterial gastroenteritis with high
incidence worldwide. Moreover, C. jejuni infection can trigger the polyneuropathic disorder
denominated Guillain-Barré ...
Setting a baseline for global urban virome surveillance in sewage
(Nature Research, 2020-08-13)
The rapid development of megacities, and their growing connectedness across the world is becoming a distinct driver for emerging disease outbreaks. Early detection of unusual disease emergence and spread ...
In a warm climate, ventilation, indoor temperature and outdoor relative humidity have significant effects on Campylobacter spp. colonization in chicken broiler farms which can occur in only 2 days
(Elsevier, 2022-08-28)
A longitudinal study was conducted in five conventional broiler farms during a 2-year period to determine the dynamics of Campylobacter infection in a warm climate region (north-eastern Spain). Weekly ...
