Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli and Tetracycline-resistant Enterococcus faecalis in wild raptors of Alabama and Georgia, USA [PDF]
, 2019 Wild birds inhabit in a wide variety of environments and can travel great distances. Thus, wild birds can possibly spread antimicrobial resistance along the way, and this may represent a potential public health concern.

Antimicrobial polypeptides [PDF]
Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2003 AbstractThe respiratory tract presents a large and potentially vulnerable surface to inhaled microbes. It is coated by a thin layer of secretions generated by airway epithelial cells, submucosal glands, resident and recruited phagocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, and macrophages) and alveolar epithelial cells, as well as substances that ...
