Microb Drug Resist
September 2020
Article Synopsis
- Groupwise antibiotic use in broiler chickens promotes antibiotic resistance, particularly after individual or group treatments with amoxicillin, with significant resistance increases observed within just 2 days of treatment.
- Resistance rates were notably lower in untreated broilers (control group) during initial treatment phases, but all groups eventually showed similar high resistance levels after a second treatment.
- The study highlights the complex dynamics of antibiotic resistance, indicating that even untreated chickens can experience shifts in microbiota and resistance levels, emphasizing the need for further research on these trends.
