Screening of Chemical Residues and Antimicrobial Resistance in Dehydrated Chicken Feet Intended as Dog Treats: A Pilot Study. [PDF]
The pet population is steadily increasing worldwide, and treats, which account for approximately 15% of the pet food market, are the fastest‐growing segment of the pet food industry. However, the widespread use of antimicrobials in poultry farms may pose a direct risk to pets’ health, leading to the emergence of antimicrobial resistance.
