Enhanced Retail Meat Surveillance for the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System

项目摘要 背景 抗菌素耐药性是一种严重威胁健康的疾病。抗菌剂在食用动物中的应用 可导致细菌产生抗药性，从而导致严重的 在人和牲畜中的感染。这种由耐药细菌引起的感染正在成为 普遍存在的一些病原体对多种类型或类别的抗生素产生抗药性。损失的损失 有效的抗生素将削弱我们抗击感染和控制感染的能力- 易受伤害患者的相关并发症。 新墨西哥州卫生部科学实验室司(SLD)参与了 自2004年以来，与NM EIP FoodNet合作，建立了零售肉类监测(RMS)。最初， EIP监管人员负责每月收集、购买和运送肉类 样本到SLD，但在2015年8月，所有RMS采购活动都转移到 SLD。 客观化 这项研究的目的是确定人群中抗菌素耐药性的流行率。 从零售鸡只样本中分离出沙门氏菌、弯曲杆菌、大肠杆菌和肠球菌， 从新墨西哥州杂货店购买的火鸡末、牛肉末和猪排。这 是一项为期五年的赠款项目。

Project Summary Background Antimicrobial resistance is a serious health threats. The use of antimicrobials in food animals can lead to the development of drug resistance in bacteria which subsequently cause serious infections in humans and livestock. Such infections, from resistant bacteria, are becoming ubiquitous with some pathogens resistant to multiple types or classes of antibiotics. The loss of effective antibiotics will undermine our ability to combat infections and to manage infection- related complications among vulnerable patients. The New Mexico Department of Health Scientific Laboratory Division (SLD) has participated in the Retail Meat Surveillance (RMS) since 2004, in collaboration with NM EIP Foodnet. Initially the EIP Surveillance Officers conducted the monthly collection, purchase and delivery of meat samples to the SLD, however, in August 2015 all RMS purchasing activities were transferred to the SLD. Objective The goal of this study is to determine the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among Salmonella, Campylobacter, E. coli and Enterococci isolated from retail samples of retail chicken, ground turkey, ground beef and pork chops purchased from grocery stores in New Mexico. This is a five year grant project.
