Frontiers in Microbiology: Multidrug Resistance in Pasteurellaceae
November 5, 2020
StarFish Medical Bio Services manager, Nick Allan, is a co-author of an original research article, Multidrug Resistance in Pasteurellaceae Associated With Bovine Respiratory Disease Mortalities in North America From 2011 to 2016, published in the 05 November 2020 online edition of Frontiers in Microbiology.
Multidrug-resistant (MDR; resistance to ≥3 antimicrobial classes) members of the Pasteurellaceae family may compromise the efficacy of therapies used to prevent and treat bovine respiratory disease (BRD) in feedlot cattle. This study examined the prevalence of multidrug resistance in strains of Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida collected from BRD cattle mortalities in North America.
