Development of a miniaturised microarray-based assay for the rapid identification of antimicrobial resistance genes in Gram-negative bacteria.

TL;DR: The miniaturised microarray provides an effective, fast and simple method for detection of resistance genes in clinical isolates suitable for use in diagnostic laboratories, which in future will help to understand the epidemiology of isolates and to detect gene linkage in bacterial populations.

Transfer of antibiotic resistant bacteria from animals to man.

TL;DR: This paper describes the zoonotic bacteria, salmonella, campylobacter, yersinia and entero-haemorrhagic E. coli, and the principles of controlling resistance development involve infection control at herd level and prudent use of antibiotics.
Journal Article

TL;DR: The thesis gives a brief overview of the use, consumption, function and benefit of antimicrobial growth promoters and a more thorough description of the potential resistance problems arising by the use of these agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimicrobial susceptibility and serovars of Salmonella from chickens and humans in Ibadan, Nigeria

TL;DR: This study indicates that chickens are not a reservoir of Salmonella causing bacteraemia among humans in Ibadan, Nigeria, and controls and targeted interventions against S. Virchow and the frequent occurrence of antimicrobial resistance in chickens should be initiated to prevent the spread of this serovar.
