Antimicrobial Resistance and Virulence Genes of Escherichia coli Isolates from Swine in Ontario

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that antimicrobial resistance epidemiology differs significantly between pathogenic and commensal E. coli isolates and may have important implications with regards to the spread and persistence of resistance and virulence genes in bacterial populations and to the prudent use of antimicrobial agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolates from swine and wild small mammals in the proximity of swine farms and in natural environments in Ontario, Canada.

TL;DR: It is suggested that close proximity to food animal agriculture increases the likelihood that E. coli isolates from wild small mammals living on farms have higher rates of resistance and are more frequently multiresistant than E. bacteria from environments that are less impacted by human and agricultural activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Possible seasonality of Clostridium difficile in retail meat, Canada.

TL;DR: The genetic diversity of C. difficile in retail meats is studied, using a broad Canadian sampling infrastructure and 3 culture methods, and 6.1% prevalence and indications of possible seasonality are found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of Clostridium difficile in dogs and the household environment.

TL;DR: Clostridium difficile was relatively common in households, suggesting that exposure to this pathogen may be a regular event, and there was no evidence that dogs are a significant source of household C.difficile contamination.
Journal Article

Occurrence of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in healthy dogs and cats presented to private veterinary hospitals in southern Ontario: a preliminary study.

TL;DR: The observed prevalence of resistance in commensal E. coli from this population was lower than that previously reported in companion animals, but a small percentage of dogs may be a reservoir for CMY-2 E coli.
