Antimicrobial resistance review

The main objective of this project was to collect 1000 faecal isolates from beef cattle, dairy cattle and veal calves and determine the resistance of any Salmonella, E. coli or Enterococcus isolated from the faeces to a range of antimicrobials. The prevalence of non-wild type resistance and multidrug resistance will be determined and results compared with a similar survey conducted in 2013.
