Journal ArticleDOI
Veterinary pharmaceuticals and antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli isolates in poultry litter from commercial farms and controlled feeding trials
TL;DR: It is concluded that broiler litter is a source of antimicrobial residues and represents a reservoir of multiple antibiotic-resistant E. coli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of Antimicrobial Resistance and Virulence Genes in Enterococcus spp. and Characterization of Isolates from Broiler Chickens
TL;DR: Results from this study showed the presence of enterococci of public and environmental health concerns in broiler chicken farms and demonstrated the utility of a microarray to quickly and reliably analyze resistance and virulence genotypes of Enterococcus spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathogenic and multidrug-resistant Escherichia fergusonii from broiler chicken
Vincenzo Forgetta,Heidi Rempel,François Malouin,Rolland Vaillancourt,Edward Topp,Ken Dewar,M. S. Diarra +6 more
TL;DR: The existence of several resistance genes to multiple classes of antibiotics indicates that infection caused by ECD-227 would be difficult to treat using antimicrobials currently available for poultry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth performance, meat quality, and gut microflora of broiler chickens fed with cranberry extract.
G. Leusink,Heidi Rempel,Brent J. Skura,M. Berkyto,W. White,Y. Yang,J. Y. Rhee,S. Y. Xuan,S. Chiu,F. G. Silversides,S. Fitzpatrick,M. S. Diarra +11 more
TL;DR: The effect of feed supplementation with a commercial cranberry fruit extract (CFE) on the performance, breast meat quality, and intestinal integrity of broiler chickens and the mortality rate tended to be lower in birds fed 40 mg of CFE/kg of feed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance and diversity of Salmonella enterica serovars associated with broiler chickens.
Moussa S. Diarra,Pascal Delaquis,Heidi Rempel,Susan Bach,Colleen Harlton,Mueen Aslam,Jane Pritchard,Edward Topp +7 more
TL;DR: The data confirm that broiler chickens can be colonized by genetically diverse antibiotic-resistant Salmonella isolates harboring virulence determinants and the presence of such strains is highly relevant to food safety and public health.
