Antimictobial Resistance

Oral presentation

This study investigates the potential role of wild coypu (Myocastor coypus) as a sentinel of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in freshwater ecosystems, using Aeromonas spp. as bioindicator.
Between December 2024 and May 2025, 51 coypu carcasses and 13 water samples were collected along the Reno River and its tributaries in Italy. Aeromonas spp. were isolated and identified by MALDI-TOF....

Antimictobial Resistance

Oral presentation

This study aimed to address the knowledge gap on Acinetobacter calcoaceticus–baumannii (ACB) and non-ACB complex species in farm animals by: -investigating the occurrence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains in animals, operators, and the farm environment; -assessing their potential role in transmission within a One Health framework.
From cattle, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, poultry, human...
