Excretion of antibiotic resistance genes by dairy calves fed milk replacers with varying doses of antibiotics

Thames, Callie H.; Pruden, Amy; James, Robert E.; Ray, Partha P.; Knowlton, Katharine F. (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2012-01-01)

Elevated levels of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soil and water have been linked to livestock farms and in some cases feed antibiotics may select for antibiotic resistant gut microbiota. The purpose of this study ...
Microbiota and Antibiotic Resistome of Lettuce Leaves and Radishes Grown in Soils Receiving Manure-Based Amendments Derived From Antibiotic-Treated Cows

Fogler, Kendall; Guron, Giselle K.P.; Wind, Lauren L.; Keenum, Ishi M.; Hession, W. Cully; Krometis, Leigh-Anne; Strawn, Laura K.; Pruden, Amy; Ponder, Monica (Frontiers Media, 2019-04-10)

Cattle are commonly administered antibiotics, resulting in excretion of antibiotics, antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The aim of this study was to determine if the use of dairy ...
Reclaimed water as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes: distribution system and irrigation implications

Fahrenfeld, Nicole; Ma, Yanjun; O'Brien, Maureen; Pruden, Amy (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2013-05-28)

reated wastewater is increasingly being reused to achieve sustainable water management in arid regions. The objective of this study was to quantify the distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in recycled water, ...
