Evaluation of colistin consumption in swine and poultry of Marche region during the 2017-2019 period

Abstract: In Italy, the National Plan against Antimicrobial Resistance (PNCAR 2017-2020) involves both human and veterinary sectors. The last one was requested to reduce colistin consumption, a first choice antibiotic for human health. Indeed, the Plan defines specific limits to reach within 2020. In Marche region, there is a project from 2017, consisting in monitoring antibiotic consumption in livestock, with particular reference to Critically Important Antimicrobials (CIAs), like colistin. The project represents an AM… Show more

“…Our results showed a low prevalence of colistin-resistant strains of S . Infantis, carrying the mcr-1 gene, probably due to a reduction in colistin use in poultry [ 45 ]. Moreover, the pESI-megaplasmid, detected in our study, in addition to other genes, carried the qacE gene involved in resistance to quaternary ammonium salts, one of the most common disinfectants used in the poultry industry.…”
