Abstract

Researchers from Villanova University conducted a study on antimicrobial resistance in poultry farming in the United States from 2015 to 2023. The study found that antimicrobial misuse in poultry processing contributes significantly to foodborne illnesses, with Salmonella enterica being the most prevalent antimicrobial-resistant pathogen. The research highlights the importance of targeted interventions and policies to mitigate antimicrobial resistance threats in the poultry production industry, emphasizing the need for proper food handling and cooking practices to reduce the risk of exposure to resistant pathogens. Regulatory authorities are urged to enforce stricter antimicrobial usage policies and enhance surveillance systems to sustain the reduction in antimicrobial resistance cases.
