Journal ArticleDOI

Annemarieke Spitzen-van der Sluijs,F. Spikmans,Wilbert Bosman,Marnix de Zeeuw,Tom van der Meij,E. Goverse,Marja Kik,Frank Pasmans,An Martel +8 more
TL;DR: A sharp decline in numbers has been observed since 2010, but it is unable to attribute this to any known cause of amphibian decline, such as chytridiomycosis, ranavirus or habitat degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for ceftiofur resistance in Escherichia coli from Belgian broilers
Davy Persoons,Freddy Haesebrouck,Annemieke Smet,Lieve Herman,Marc Heyndrickx,An Martel,Boudewijn Catry,Anna Catharina Berge,Patrick Butaye,Jeroen Dewulf +9 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that not only on-farm antimicrobial therapy, but also management- and hatchery-related factors influence the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origin of Clostridium perfringens isolates determines the ability to induce necrotic enteritis in broilers.
Leen Timbermont,Anouk Lanckriet,Ahmadreeza Gholamiandehkordi,Frank Pasmans,An Martel,Freddy Haesebrouck,Richard Ducatelle,Filip Van Immerseel +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, C. perfringens was evaluated for the ability to cause gut necrosis in an intestinal loop model in laying hens and in an experimental infection model in broilers.
Journal ArticleDOI
