Antibiogram and molecular insights into quinolone resistance in Salmonella spp. from food-producing animals in the Philippines

Key Points

• This research aims to investigate the extent of fluoroquinolone resistance in Salmonella found in food-producing animals.
• Investigated Salmonella strains from food-producing animals in the Philippines.
• Conducted antibiogram analysis to assess resistance levels.
• Examined molecular mechanisms of resistance in the isolated strains.
• Identified widespread fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella strains.
• Highlighted a significant threat to treatment of food-borne Salmonella diseases.
