Fruit bats (Eidolon helvum) as sentinels of antimicrobial resistance and clinically relevant bacteria in Ghana: A One Health perspective

2026-06-12

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical global public health threat, but surveillance remains heavily skewed toward clinical settings, creating a significant gap regarding the role of synanthropic wildlife. This cross-sectional study investigated the bacteriological diversity, phenotypic resistance profiles, and molecular resistance determinants of bacteria harbored by the str...
