“…These results are nearly identical to results obtained in this investigation. Schuppers et al (2005) in Switzerland reported a level of 19.2% C. jejuni/coli strains resistant to erythromycin, significantly lower than in data reported by authors in other countries.…”

The sensititivity of thermophilic Campylobacter strains isolated from caecum of broiler chickens as well as caecum and colon of pigs and human stools, were tested against erythromycin. In 16 strains isolated in broiler chickens, resistance rate was found to be 12.50%. Three of 10 strains of Campylobacter jejuni and one of 6 strains of Campylobacter coli isolated from broiler chickens were resistant to erythromycin. In 15 strains of thermophilic Campylobacters isolated from pigs, resistance rate to erythromycin was 40.00%. Resistance was exhibited more often in C. coli (50.00%) as compared to C. jejuni (20.00%). In 24 strains isolated from humans, resistance was demonstrated at the rate of 12.50%. Out of 17 strains of C. jejuni isolated from humans, resistance was exhibited in 17.65% strains. None of 7 strains of C. coli isolated from humans exhibited resistance to erythromycin. Thermophilic campylobacters, especially C. coli isolated from pigs were more resistant to erythromycin than strains isolated from humans and broiler chickens. Therefore, a great attention should be directed to the macrolides monitoring in swine farming in order to prevent resistance in animals and its subsequent spread to human.

“…Previous studies report contrasting levels of ciprofloxacin resistance in C. coli ranging from 2.4%, to 19.2% to as high as 86% (Ekkapobyotin et al, 2008;Schuppers et al, 2005;Varela et al, 2007). Multidrug resistance in C. jejuni and coli has also been significantly (pb 0.01) associated with resistance to ciprofloxacin (Griggs et al, 2005).…”

“…Schuppers et al [9] examined herd-level risk factors for resistance to antibiotics including FQ (ciprofloxacin) among C. coli on Swiss pig farms, using a similar approach to the present study. There was more emphasis on herd health variables, including assessments by clinical examinations, but data were not sufficient to take account of previous antimicrobial use on farms.…”

SUMMARYLogistic regression, supported by other statistical analyses was used to explore the possible association of risk factors with the fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistance status of 108 pig finisher farms in Great Britain. The farms were classified as 'affected' or 'not affected' by FQ-resistant E. coli or Campylobacter spp. on the basis of isolation of organisms from faecal samples on media containing 1 mg.l -1 FQ. The use of FQ was the most important factor associated with finding resistant E. coli and/or Campylobacter, which were found on 79% (FQ-resistant E. coli) and 86% (FQ-resistant Campylobacter) of farms with a history of FQ use. However, resistant bacteria were also found on 19% (FQ-resistant E. coli) and 54% (FQ-resistant Campylobacter) of farms with no history of FQ use. For FQ-resistant E.
