“…In the Campylobacteriaceae, C. coli, C. fetus, and C. jejuni were detected in cow rumen fluid and feces (Table 1). Similar findings were reported in Tanzania, Kenya and Ghana by (Kashoma et al, 2015;Nguyen et al, 2016;Karikari et al, 2017) in beef cattle feces, faeces and cloacal swabs of chickens and faeces and carcasses of healthy livestock animals, respectively. Pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus sciuri were detected only at the smallholder farms in Tanzania (Table 1).…”

There is little information about the diversity of bacterial pathogens present in the rumen and feces of healthy cow and the subsequent effects on the performance of the host animal. The objectives of the present study were to genetically characterize the enteric bacterial pathogens found in the rumen fluid and cow feces and to identify the resistant genes responsible for antimicrobial resistance in the detected pathogens. The cow feces and rumen fluid samples (6 rumen fluid and 42 feces) were collected from lactating dairy cows. Using next generation sequencing, the enteric bacterial pathogens detected were screened for antimicrobial resistance genes using ResFinder-2.1 database in the center of Abricate. The characterized enteric bacterial pathogens include Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Campylobacter coli, and Campylobacter fetus among others. Those enteric bacterial pathogens were also drug resistant bacteria except Campylobacter coli. The Campylobacter fetus fetus was identified as the only multidrug resistant bacterial pathogen detected in the cow feces. However, the abundant resistant genes detected confer resistance to tetracycline (17 genes from 209 contigs), beta-lactam (21 genes from 67 contigs), streptomycin (6 genes from 153 contigs), and sulfamethoxazole (2 genes from 72 contigs). This is the first study to identify the diversity of enteric bacterial pathogens from the station based and smallholder dairy cows in Kenya and Tanzania, respectively.

“…In sheep carcasses, the mean prevalence was 23.3% computed using two articles from two countries. Ghana [68] showed a higher prevalence of C. jejuni while Ethiopia [76] reported a higher prevalence of C. coli. In pork, the prevalence was 8.5% in one article from Ethiopia [72] with C. coli being more prevalent than C. jejuni.…”

Thermophilic Campylobacter species are clinically important aetiologies of gastroenteritis in humans throughout the world. The colonization of different animal reservoirs by Campylobacter poses an important risk for humans through shedding of the pathogen in livestock waste and contamination of water sources, environment, and food. A review of published articles was conducted to obtain information on the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles of thermophilic Campylobacter species in humans and animals in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Electronic databases, namely, PubMed, Google Scholar, Research4life-HINARI Health, and Researchgate.net, were searched using the following search terms “thermophilic Campylobacter,” “Campylobacter jejuni,” “Campylobacter coli,” “diarrhea/diarrhoea,” “antimicrobial resistance,” “antibiotic resistance,” “humans,” “animals,” “Sub-Saharan Africa,” and “a specific country name.” Initially, a total of 614 articles were identified, and the lists of references were screened in which 22 more articles were identified. After screening, 33 articles on humans and 34 on animals and animal products were included in this review. In humans, Nigeria reported the highest prevalence (62.7%), followed by Malawi (21%) and South Africa (20.3%). For Campylobacter infections in under-five children, Kenya reported 16.4%, followed by Rwanda (15.5%) and Ethiopia (14.5%). The country-level mean prevalence in all ages and under-five children was 18.6% and 9.4%, respectively. The prevalence ranged from 1.7%–62.7% in humans and 1.2%–80% in animals. The most reported species were C. jejuni and C. coli. The AMR to commonly used antimicrobials ranged from 0–100% in both humans and animals. Poultry consumption and drinking surface water were the main risk factors for campylobacteriosis. The present review provides evidence of thermophilic Campylobacter occurrence in humans and animals and high levels of AMR in SSA, emphasizing the need for strengthening both national and regional multisectoral antimicrobial resistance standard surveillance protocols to curb both the campylobacteriosis burden and increase of antimicrobial resistance in the region.

“…doylei have been isolated from poultry. These organisms have been found to be resistant to β-lactams, quinolones, aminoglycosides, erythromycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and all isolated species were sensitive to imipenem [75,76].…”

A surge in the development and spread of antibiotic resistance has become a major cause for concern. Over the past few decades, no major new types of antibiotics have been produced and almost all known antibiotics are increasingly losing their activity against pathogenic microorganisms. The levels of multi-drug resistant bacteria have also increased. It is known that worldwide, more than 60% of all antibiotics that are produced find their use in animal production for both therapeutic and non-therapeutic purposes. The use of antimicrobial agents in animal husbandry has been linked to the development and spread of resistant bacteria. Poultry products are among the highest consumed products worldwide but a lot of essential antibiotics are employed during poultry production in several countries; threatening the safety of such products (through antimicrobial residues) and the increased possibility of development and spread of microbial resistance in poultry settings. This chapter documents some of the studies on antibiotic usage in poultry farming; with specific focus on some selected bacterial species, their economic importance to poultry farming and reports of resistances of isolated species from poultry settings (farms and poultry products) to essential antibiotics.
