Journal ArticleDOI

The attribution of human infections with antimicrobial resistant Salmonella bacteria in Denmark to sources of animal origin.

TL;DR: This study showed domestic food to be the most important source of Salmonella infections in Denmark, but infections with multidrug- and quinolone-resistant isolates were more commonly caused by imported food products and travelling, emphasizing the need for a global perspective on food safety and antimicrobial usage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization and occurrence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase resistance genes among Salmonella enterica serovar Corvallis from Thailand, Bulgaria, and Denmark.

TL;DR: A high frequency of resistance was observed among S. Corvallis isolated from humans and food products in Bulgaria, with a lower frequency in Thailand and Denmark, and the clonal relatedness among the isolates from three countries could indicate a recent spread of this serovar.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emergence of methicillin resistance predates the clinical use of antibiotics

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors show that methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus appeared in hedgehogs in the pre-antibiotic era, and these lineages spread within the local hedgehog populations and between hedge-hogs and secondary hosts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association Between Antimicrobial Resistance in Escherichia coli Isolates from Food Animals and Blood Stream Isolates from Humans in Europe: An Ecological Study

TL;DR: Resistance in E. coli isolate from food animals (especially poultry and pigs) was highly correlated with resistance in isolates from humans, which supports the hypothesis that a large proportion of resistant E. Escherichia coli isolates causing blood stream infections in people may be derived from food sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of Methods for the Concentration and Extraction of Viruses from Sewage in the Context of Metagenomic Sequencing.

TL;DR: A significant influence of concentration and extraction protocols on the detected viriome was found, and highest viral specificity and viral richness were found in samples concentrated by precipitation with polyethylene glycol or extracted with Nucleospin RNA XS.
