Detection of CTX-M-15 Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> Isolates from Colostrum and Faeces of Newborn Dairy Calves in China
Newborn dairy calves are often colonized by multidrug-resistant (MDR) extended-spectrum β-Lactamase producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> (ESBL-EC), which pose significant risks to global healthcare. As the first meal of calves, the role of dairy colostrum as a potential source of MDR-<i&...
