Aarestrup, Frank M.
Antimicrobial Resistance in Bacteria of Animal Origin - 1st ed. - USA: ASM Press; 2006. - 441 p. ;
Comprehensively examines the current research on antimicrobial resistance in the main veterinary and zoonotic pathogens. • Provides information on modes of action of antibiotics and mechanisms of bacterial resistance, in addition to exploring the history of antimicrobial use in agriculture. • Examines antimicrobial resistance in specific bacteria, including: the family Pasteurellaceae, species of Campylobacter, pathogenic Escherichia coli, staphylococci, streptococci, and Enterococcus. • Details phenotypic and molecular methods for susceptibility testing, regulatory mechanisms for usage of antibiotics, and methods for monitoring drug usage and resistance. • Serves as an important reference for students, researchers, public health experts, veterinarians, and anyone with an interest in resistant bacteria in a
