“… 66 Furthermore, the presence of drug resistant microbes and drug residue in animal waste is the main source of environmental AMR then humans through direct defilement and stimulation respectively. 67 From the environment, animals get these resistant microorganisms through various routes and animals’ guts and tissue harbor a high population of ARB which is further disseminated to the environment as well as to humans and vice-versa. 14 These pathogens access humans through handling and ingesting contaminated food items, or contact with animals, as well as through fishing in or drinking defiled water.…”

Antimicrobial resistance, referring to microorganisms’ capability to subsist and proliferate even when there are antimicrobials is a foremost threat to public health globally. The appearance of antimicrobial resistance can be ascribed to anthropological, animal, and environmental factors. Human-related causes include antimicrobial overuse and misuse in medicine, antibiotic-containing cosmetics and biocides utilization, and inadequate sanitation and hygiene in public settings. Prophylactic and therapeutic antimicrobial misuse and overuse, using antimicrobials as feed additives, microbes resistant to antibiotics and resistance genes in animal excreta, and antimicrobial residue found in animal-origin food and excreta are animals related contributive factors for the antibiotic resistance emergence and spread. Environmental factors including naturally existing resistance genes, improper disposal of unused antimicrobials, contamination from waste in public settings, animal farms, and pharmaceutical industries, and the use of agricultural and sanitation chemicals facilitatet its emergence and spread. Wildlife has a plausible role in the antimicrobial resistance spread. Adopting a one-health approach involving using antimicrobials properly in animals and humans, improving sanitation in public spaces and farms, and implementing coordinated governmental regulations is crucial for combating antimicrobial resistance. Collaborative and cooperative involvement of stakeholders in public, veterinary and ecological health sectors is foremost to circumvent the problem effectively.

Effective porcine health management relies majorly on diagnostic tests, vaccination, treatment strategies, and a proper biosecurity management plan. However, understanding the link between circulating microbes and biosecurity measures on a pig farm is not evident. Substantial progress has been made in recent years with the availability of new diagnostic tools (e.g., sequencing‐based diagnostics) and extensive biosecurity management questionnaires. However, the interpretation and correlation of these results are hampered by the abundance of gained (meta)data. Therefore, we aimed to cross‐correlate viral and bacterial pathogens with respiratory tropism detected by third‐generation nanopore metagenomic sequencing with biosecurity measures assessed by Biocheck.UGent™. The study was conducted on 25 sow farms with attached nurseries in Germany with known respiratory distress. The biosecurity level of the study farms complied with the European averages. Interestingly, the farms with the highest biosecurity score showed the lowest overall prevalence of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and Actinobacillus sp.; the circulation of well‐studied pathogenic viruses, such as PRRSV, was correlated with overall lower biosecurity scores, a higher number of stillborn piglets, and cocirculation of porcine parvovirus type 7. Moreover, potential risk factors for lesser‐known agents (e.g., porcine hemagglutinating and encephalomyelitis virus, porcine respiratory coronavirus, and porcine polyomavirus) could also be addressed. For the bacterial pathogen Glaesserella sp., a correlation with increased clinical signs was observed, whereas Lactobacillus sp. and Moraxella sp. are putative biomarkers for pig farms with better biosecurity scores. In conclusion, in‐depth cross‐correlation of (meta)data from new diagnostic platforms with biosecurity measures on pig farms may contribute to a better understanding of new actions in adapting biosecurity measures. This will not only contribute to improved animal welfare and economic productivity but also helping to address (new) zoonotic disease threats and potential treatments.

Foodborne diseases (FBDs) are a major worldwide public health concern. In the current context of globalization, it has become crucial to establish effective collaboration between countries to reduce the incidence of FBDs, by creating knowledge-sharing activities to address this challenge. However, despite the importance of this subject, there are limited opportunities for researchers from French-speaking countries to meet and exchange expertise in this field. Researchers from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the Université de Montréal (Canada) and from the Faculty of Science, University of Abdelmalek Essaadi (Morocco) took the initiative to organize the first French-speaking edition of the conference on Good Hygiene Practices to Ensure Food Safety, that was held virtually on May 25 and 26, 2022. Attendees (n = 122) came from academic, food processing and government sectors. The conference was a great opportunity to showcase the practical application of the risk analysis paradigm, with concrete examples of food hazards, as well as the use of the latest high-throughput sequencing technologies as a tool for source attribution and molecular typing of some of the most important foodborne pathogens. In addition, the conference created a valuable forum for the exchange of knowledge between international food safety experts, particularly with respect to Canadian regulations compared with those of other countries. Interestingly, following the success of this first edition, the conference’s scientific committee has decided to continue organizing this event on a biannual basis, to provide a unique forum for French-speaking researchers to learn about the latest advances in food safety.
