11 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
Given the lack of genetic characterization data for multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella in South Korean poultry, we analyzed 53 MDR Salmonella strains from 1232 poultry meat samples (723 chicken, 509 duck) using whole-genome sequencing. Five serotypes were identified: S. Infantis (30/53, 56.6%), S. Enteritidis (11/53, 20.8%), S. Virchow (9/53, 17.0%), S. Agona (2/53, 3.8%), and S. Indiana (1/53, 1.9%). Sequence...
