Observational analysis revealed significant AMR differences in Salmonella and Enterococcus across chicken production types, suggesting the need for tailored interventions.
Key Points
In conventional production systems, higher levels of multidrug resistance were noted in Salmonella and E. coli.
The study found a prevalence of 10.9% for Salmonella, 22.1% for E. coli, and 93.9% for Enterococcus in chicken meat samples.
Resistance to critically important antimicrobials like vancomycin and imipenem was detected in Enterococcus and Salmonella, respectively.
Targeted AMR control strategies are essential to address resistance dynamics in chicken meat production systems.
