Association between the Presence of Resistance Genes and Sanitiser Resistance of Isolates Recovered from Different Food-Processing Facilities.

Sanitisers are widely used in cleaning food-processing facilities, but their continued use may cause an increased resistance of pathogenic bacteria. Several genes have been attributed to the increased sanitiser resistance ability of . This study determined the presence of sanitiser resistance genes in Irish-sourced isolates and explored the association with phenotypic sanitiser resistance.
