Abstract

The aim was to longitudinally evaluate the association between antimicrobial exposure and resistance occurrence within generic Escherichia coli and Enterococcus spp. populations in feedlot beef cattle raised conventionally or raised without antimicrobials. Angus steers (n = 180) were sorted into 1 of 2 treatments over 2 consecutive years (108 in yr 1 and 72 in yr 2): steers raised without antimicrobials (NAT) and conventionally raised steers exposed to antimicrobials (CONV). Pens within treatment were adjacent and separated by five empty pens from the other treatment. Monensin and tylosin were included in CONV steer diets. On d 123, CONV steers received a metaphylactic antimicrobial. Longitudinal diet (n = 6/year) and fecal (n = 5/year) sampling timepoints were collected to determine E. coli and Enterococcus spp. concentration, prevalence, and resistance patterns. Dietary Enterococcus spp. concentrations, and erythromycin (8ERY^R; 128ERY^R), tetracycline (TET^R), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (COT^R), and cefotaxime (CTX^R) resistant E. coli concentrations and prevalence were greater in NAT diets than CONV diets (p < 0.02). Fecal E. coli concentrations tended to be greater in NAT steers than CON steers (p = 0.07). Fecal TET^R E. coli concentrations were greater in CONV steers than NAT steers (p = 0.03). Fecal COT^R and CTX^R E. coli prevalence was greater for CONV steers at the beginning of the finishing phase while greater for NAT steers at the end of the finishing phase (p < 0.01). Fecal Enterococcus spp. concentrations did not differ between treatments (p = 0.11). Concentrations of 8ERY^R and 128ERY^R Enterococcus spp. were greater in CONV steers on d 64, 130, and 168 than NAT steers (p < 0.05). Overall, antimicrobial resistant Enterococcus spp. and E. coli were detected regardless of antimicrobial exposure.

期刊介绍： Foodborne Pathogens and Disease is one of the most inclusive scientific publications on the many disciplines that contribute to food safety. Spanning an array of issues from "farm-to-fork," the Journal bridges the gap between science and policy to reduce the burden of foodborne illness worldwide. Foodborne Pathogens and Disease coverage includes: Agroterrorism Safety of organically grown and genetically modified foods Emerging pathogens Emergence of drug resistance Methods and technology for rapid and accurate detection Strategies to destroy or control foodborne pathogens Novel strategies for the prevention and control of plant and animal diseases that impact food safety Biosecurity issues and the implications of new regulatory guidelines Impact of changing lifestyles and consumer demands on food safety.
