We investigated antimicrobial resistance-related genes in 109 isolates of Trueperella pyogenes that were isolated in cattle and pigs. All 89 tetracycline-resistant T. pyogenes isolates carried the resistance gene harbored either tetW, tetM, tetA(33), tetK, or tetL.

The strains investigated in this study were found to be susceptible to ampicillin, cefazolin, gentamicin, and levofloxacin. However, 53.

The porcine strains showed significantly stronger hemolyticity than the bovine strains. In addition, T.

- In a study from 2007-2008, 270 pig fecal samples from a meat processing plant in southern Japan were examined for Salmonella, resulting in 44 isolates, with significant antimicrobial resistance detected in several serotypes.
- Multidrug resistance was especially seen in Typhimurium and Infantis, with high resistance rates recorded against common antibiotics like streptomycin and ampicillin.
- Notably, this study is the first to report Salmonella Infantis from pigs producing AmpC β-lactamase, highlighting a need for enhanced surveillance of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella in livestock and public health.
The determination of antimicrobial minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae by using the agar dilution method has not been covered by the Clinical and Laboratory Institute (CLSI). Only the broth microdilution method has been outlined. This report describes a modification of the agar dilution procedure for E.
