AI Article Synopsis
- From 2002 to 2013, a study in Montreal found that Campylobacter coli isolates had a significantly higher resistance to antibiotics (erythromycin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin) compared to Campylobacter jejuni isolates.
- The resistance rates were 18.4% for Campylobacter coli versus only 1.8% for Campylobacter jejuni.
- Additionally, Campylobacter jejuni isolates acquired abroad showed more resistance (5.4%) compared to locally acquired ones (0%).
Article Abstract
