Metal contamination in dairy systems drives antibiotic resistance through co‐selection. Analysis of 3303 genomes revealed 74% of isolates harbour more metal than AMR genes. Arsenic (arsB) and tetracycline (tet(38)) resistance co‐occur in 43% of bacteria, exhibiting nearly identical prevalence, suggesting a tight genetic linkage.

Quantitation of Guggenheimella bovis and treponemes in bovine tissues related to digital dermatitis [PDF]
Digital dermatitis is an inflammation of uncertain aetiology in the skin of the foot of cattle. In 2005, a novel microorganism, Guggenheimella bovis, was isolated from the advancing front of digital dermatitis lesions, suggesting a possible role in ...
