Utilizarea antibioticelor si evolutia antibiorezistentei în populatiile de animale – Un rezumat

Antimicrobial resistance is a public and animal health problem, with global dimensions, due to the use of antimicrobial agents in human, and veterinary medicine and in the phytosanitary area. In this sense, the human, animal and plant domains have a common responsibility to prevent, or reduce to a minimum, the selective pressure that favors and amplifies the antimicrobial resistance of both pathogens that affect humans, and those that affect other species. This material presents the economic reality and important aspects related to the evolution of antibiotic resistance in animal populations in Romania, with correlations between the data from our country and the E.U. The present material was presented in its PPT form at events organized in Romania based on this topic, but the importance of the subject requires that this fact also be reported in the Association's publication. This material is based on scientific studies from the last decade, books, expert opinions and the author's personal experience. Of course, as part of a continuous updating process, this (personal) point of view must be periodically adapted to the latest scientific knowledge obtained on this topic.
