Study of antimicrobial resistance for the causative agent of the bovine reproductive system infection by the NGS method

Abstract

In the present study, the biomaterial specimen derived from a farm animal with a chronic reproductive system infection was carefully investigated using the Next Generation Sequencing method. The bacterial DNA of the genus Enterobacter was detected. The genetic determinants of resistance to 12 classes of antibiotics were identified in the genome of this microorganism. The data obtained highlight the necessity of strengthening global control over the spread of resistant microorganism strains in agriculture especially in the animal husbandry sector.
