The Gut Microbiome of Healthy Vietnamese Adults and Children Is a Major Reservoir for Resistance Genes Against Critical Antimicrobials
3 Aug 2021
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobials are a key group of therapeutic agents. Given the animal/human population density and high antimicrobial consumption rate in Southeast Asia, the region is a focal area for monitoring antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Hypothesizing that the gastrointestinal tract of healthy individuals in Vietnam is a major source of AMR genes that may be transferred to pathogens, we performed shotgun metagenomic...
