Mathematical modelling of the emergence, spread and detection of antimicrobial resistant Samonella in pigs
The exposure of humans to antimicrobial resistant Salmonella Typhimurium through the ingestion of contaminated meat products, presents a risk to public health due to the possibility of antimicrobial treatment failure, resulting in prolonged illness and possible death. It is therefore essential that...
