Antibiotic resistance among indicator bacteria isolated from healthy pigs in New Zealand

Abstract: On commercial pig farms which used antimicrobial agents, there was a higher level of antimicrobial resistance in the E. coli and Enterococcus spp cultured from the faeces of pigs compared with an organic farm which used no antibiotics. Overall levels of antibiotic resistance in the indicator bacteria isolated from conventional pig farms in this study were similar to those reported for indicator bacteria from pigs in Europe.

“…Of the 127 studies, 51 restricted all use of antibiotics (complete restriction),35–85 three restricted use of a single antibiotic class86–88 and seven restricted use of a single specific antibiotic 89–95. In all, 33 studies restricted use of antibiotics for all non-therapeutic purposes,48 96–127 and 19 restricted antibiotic growth promoters only 128–146.…”

“…However, few reports of the level of antimicrobial resistance in E. coli and enterococci of wild animals have been published (Nulsen et al, 2008;Poeta et al, 2005bPoeta et al, , 2007bRadhouani et al, 2009;Silva et al, 2010).…”
