The identification of infection from gastric biopsy samples requires PCR or bacterial cultures. However, it is difficult to culture because it is a fragile bacterium. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows direct assessment of the resistome and virulome.

Article Synopsis
- Macrolides are the preferred treatment for campylobacteriosis, with low resistance rates in France, primarily due to specific mutations and two identified methyltransferases.
- Between 2018 and 2023, 280 erythromycin-resistant strains were sequenced, revealing a significant rise in resistance markers, especially with mutations being present in 90% of cases.
- The majority of resistant isolates originated from chickens, indicating the need for close monitoring of resistant strains in poultry production.
