Molecular Epidemiology of Antibiotic-Resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> from Farm-to-Fork in Intensive Poultry Production in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

Molecular Epidemiology of Antibiotic-Resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> from Farm-to-Fork in Intensive Poultry Production in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

The increased use of antibiotics in food animals has resulted in the selection of drug-resistant bacteria across the farm-to-fork continuum. This study aimed to investigate the molecular epidemiology of antibiotic-resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> from intensively produced poultry in the...
