The impacts of the antimicrobial growth promoter (AGP), chlortetracycline with sulfamethazine (AS700), on the development of antimicrobial resistance and longitudinal transmission of within the beef production continuum were empirically determined. Carriage of tetracycline resistance determinants in the enteric bacterial community increased at a greater rate for AS700-treatment cattle. The majority of the bacteria from animals administered AS700 carried .

Increasing evidence exists for the role that cattle play in the epidemiology of campylobacteriosis. In this study, the prevalence and distribution of were longitudinally examined at the subspecies level in the beef cattle production continuum. Animals were subdivided into two groups: those that were not administered antibiotics and those that were administered the antimicrobial growth promoter chlortetracycline and sulfamethazine (AS700).
