Article Synopsis
  • In Myanmar, different types of pig farming coexist, but there's a lack of understanding about the zoonotic risks and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) linked to these practices, prompting this study focused on Salmonella.
  • The study found a significant prevalence of Salmonella across various pig farms, with backyard farms having the highest incidence, and intensive farms showing a concerning level of multi-drug resistant strains.
  • The research highlighted the presence of various Salmonella serovars, especially in semi-intensive and backyard farms, indicating a need for future monitoring and risk management to address zoonotic concerns and AMR in pig farming.

We investigated the consequences of colistin use in backyard chicken farms in Vietnam by examining the prevalence of mcr-1 in fecal samples from chickens and humans. Detection of mcr-1-carrying bacteria in chicken samples was associated with colistin use and detection in human samples with exposure to mcr-1-positive chickens.

Streptococcus suis causes disease in pigs worldwide and is increasingly implicated in zoonotic disease in East and South-East Asia. To understand the genetic basis of disease in S. suis, we study the genomes of 375 isolates with detailed clinical phenotypes from pigs and humans from the United Kingdom and Vietnam.
