Determination of antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene signatures in surface water isolates of Escherichia coli.

abstract：:Avoparcin was used as a feed additive in Norwegian broiler and turkey production from 1986 until 1995. It was banned due to the selection of VanA-type vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in animal husbandry and to reduce the potential for human exposure to VRE. The aim of the present study was to investigate the pr...
