Antimicrobial usage in pig production: Effects on Escherichia coli virulence profiles and antimicrobial resistance
Antimicrobials (AM) are used for growth promotion and therapy in pig production. Its misuse has led to the development of resistant organisms. We evaluated Escherichia coli virulence genes, and compared phenotypic–genotypic antimicrobial resistance (AMR) patterns of faecal E. coli from pigs receivin...
