Gut Colonization by ESBL-Producing Escherichia coli in Dogs Is Associated with a Distinct Microbiome and Resistome Composition
10 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
The gut microbiome of humans and animals is an important source of multidrug resistant pathogens, including beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC). In this study, we assessed if the carriage of ESBL-EC in dogs was associated with changes in gut composition of bacteria and antimicrobial resistant genes (ARGs). Therefore, stool samples from 57 dogs were collected every 2 weeks for a total of 6 weeks....
