Book Description
WHO has launched new guidelines on use of medically important antimicrobials in food-producing animals, recommending that farmers and the food industry stop using antibiotics routinely to promote growth and prevent disease in healthy animals. These guidelines aim to help preserve the effectiveness of antibiotics that are important for human medicine by reducing their use in animals.

Antibiotic Use in Animals
Author: Sara SavicPublisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535137506
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
The book Antibiotic Use in Animals has everything said in the title, but it is not only meant for the veterinarians. It is intended to be used also by the medical doctors, animal owners, consumers of food of animal origin, etc. The book has five sections: "Introduction," "Use of Antibiotics in Animals," "Antibiotics and Nutrition," "Probiotics," and "Antimicrobial Resistance." Each of the sections discusses about one side of the antibiotic usage. Each group of authors has dedicated their work to one of the topics with key roles of antibiotics in the health of animals and public health in general. This book is a work of scientists and researchers in the topic of antibiotic use, and with this book, we hope to open new questions and deepen the research on roles of antibiotics in everyday life.
Antimicrobial Resistance in Bacteria from Livestock and Companion Animals

Pages : 400
Book Description
The global spread of antimicrobial-resistant pathogenic bacteria is a continuing challenge to the health care of humans and domesticated animals. With no new agents on the horizon, it is imperative to use antimicrobial agents wisely to preserve their future efficacy. Led by Editors Stefan Schwarz, Lina Maria Cavaco, and Jianzhong Shen with Frank Møller Aarestrup, an international team of experts in antimicrobial resistance of livestock and companion animals has created this valuable reference for veterinary students and practitioners as well as researchers and decision makers interested in understanding and preventing antimicrobial resistance.

Book Description
The first book to offer practical guidelines on the prudent andrational use of antimicrobials in animals. Drawing onmultidisciplinary expertise to offer independent scientific adviceon a controversial area that is crucial to both human health andanimal welfare. The earlier general chapters cover issues such ashuman health risks and the problems of resistance to antimicrobialdrugs. The later specific chapters are dedicated to particulargroups of animals. Has an emphasis on preserving the efficacy of antimicrobialdrugs that are clinically important in human medicine Covers both companion animals and food animals, includingaquaculture Suitable for veterinary practitioners working in small andlarge animal medicine, aquaculture and animal production, as wellas veterinary students, academics and researchers. It will also beof interest to those more generally involved in veterinary publichealth and antimicrobial resistance.
The Use of Drugs in Food Animals
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309175771
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The use of drugs in food animal production has resulted in benefits throughout the food industry; however, their use has also raised public health safety concerns. The Use of Drugs in Food Animals provides an overview of why and how drugs are used in the major food-producing animal industriesâ€"poultry, dairy, beef, swine, and aquaculture. The volume discusses the prevalence of human pathogens in foods of animal origin. It also addresses the transfer of resistance in animal microbes to human pathogens and the resulting risk of human disease. The committee offers analysis and insight into these areas: Monitoring of drug residues. The book provides a brief overview of how the FDA and USDA monitor drug residues in foods of animal origin and describes quality assurance programs initiated by the poultry, dairy, beef, and swine industries. Antibiotic resistance. The committee reports what is known about this controversial problem and its potential effect on human health. The volume also looks at how drug use may be minimized with new approaches in genetics, nutrition, and animal management.

Drivers, Dynamics and Epidemiology of Antimicrobial Resistance in Animal Production

Book Description
It is now accepted that increased antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria affecting humans and animals in recent decades is primarily influenced by an increase in usage of antimicrobials for a variety of purposes, including therapeutic and non-therapeutic uses in animal production. Antimicrobial resistance is an ancient and naturally occurring phenomenon in bacteria. But the use of antimicrobial drugs – in health care, agriculture or industrial settings – exerts a selection pressure which can favour the survival of resistant strains (or genes) over susceptible ones, leading to a relative increase in resistant bacteria within microbial communities.
