The results of the study were published by the Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation. Antimicrobial resistance in veterinary medicine has received a considerable amount of recognition as a potential factor leading to antimicrobial resistance in human medicine Lubbers said.
However the contribution of multidrug resistance to limited or failed therapy in veterinary patients has received much less attention.
Because there are a limited number of antimicrobial drugs that can be used for treatment of BRD pathogens Lubbers said multidrug resistance in those pathogens poses a severe threat to the livestock industry.
