Use of colistin and other critical antimicrobials on pig and chicken farms in southern Vietnam and Its association with resistance in commensal Escherichia coli bacteria.

We accessed 12 pig and chicken farms at key stages of production in Tien Giang Province, Vietnam, to measure antimicrobial usage and to investigate the prevalence of AMR to five critical antimicrobials (β-lactams, third-generation cephalosporins, quinolones, aminoglycosides, and polymyxins) and their corresponding molecular mechanis...
