Genomic characterization of antimicrobial resistance in -carrying ESBL-producing from pigs and humans.

Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was conducted to characterize -carrying extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing (=7). These isolates originated from two pigs (TH2 and TH3) and two humans (TH8 and TH9) from Thailand, and three pigs from Lao PDR (LA1, LA2 and LA3). Four sequence types/serotypes - ST6833/H20 (TH2 and TH3), ST48/O160:H40 (TH8 and TH9), ST5708/H45 (LA1) and ST10562/O148:H30 (LA2 and LA3) - were identified.

Colistin resistance and plasmid-mediated genes in and isolated from pigs, pig carcass and pork in Thailand, Lao PDR and Cambodia border provinces.

Background: Colistin and carbapenem-resistant bacteria have emerged and become a serious public health concern, but their epidemiological data is still limited.

Objectives: This study examined colistin and carbapenem resistance in and from pigs, pig carcasses, and pork in Thailand, Lao PDR, and Cambodia border provinces.

Methods: The phenotypic and genotypic resistance to colistin and meropenem was determined in and obtained from pigs, pig carcasses, and pork (n = 1,619).

Presence and Transfer of Antimicrobial Resistance Determinants in in Pigs, Pork, and Humans in Thailand and Lao PDR Border Provinces.

This study aimed to investigate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) characteristics of isolates from pig origin (including pigs, pig carcass, and pork) and humans in Thailand and Lao People's Democratic Republic (PDR) border provinces. The majority of the isolates from Thailand (69.7%) and Lao PDR (63.
