NameWorld Continuing Education Alliance
Activity TitlePrevalence of antibiotic-resistant E. coli in retail chicken: comparing conventional, organic, kosher, and raised without antibiotics
DetailsThe use of antibiotics in livestock production may pose health risks to humans, as such usage has been correlated with the occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria isolated from human infections. The organic and RWA labels require specific production methods as stipulated in US federal regulations, whereas the kosher label adheres to religious requirements that are regulated privately. The RWA label requires that “livestock have never received antibiotics from birth to harvest”. Here, we compared four major types of poultry-conventional, kosher, organic, and RWA-in order to assess the frequency of contamination with antibiotic-resistant n Objectives Course Objective Retail poultry products are known sources of antibiotic-resistant n
