Phenotypic and genomic characterization of antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. from livestock in Namibia.

OBJECTIVES Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern within the One Health framework. This study characterized AMR in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. isolated from livestock fecal samples across commercial and communal farms in Namibia. METHODS About 140 fecal samples were collected from cattle, sheep,...

Genomic evidence of clinically relevant antimicrobial resistance genes and mobile plasmids in wastewater-associated environmental bacteria

This study provides genome-level baseline evidence that wastewater-associated, non-clinical Gram-negative bacteria in Namibia harbor clinically relevant AMR determinants, reinforcing the value of wastewater-based genomic surveillance for understanding environmental AMR dissemination, and emphasizing the public health i...
