Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of thermophilic Campylobacter spp. from cattle farms in Washington State
Article Abstract:
The study regarding prevalence, distribution, and antimicrobial resistance of thermophilic Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter coli, and other thermophilic Campylobacter (OTC) species in cattle was conducted. It is demonstrated that Campylobacter jejuni is widely distributed among Washington cattle farms, while Campylobacter coli is more narrowly distributed but significantly more resistant.

Identification of specific gene sequences conserved in contemporary epidemic strains of Salmonella enterica
Article Abstract:
A study identified genetic elements specific to recent and contemporary epidemic strains of Salmonella (S) enterica using comparative genomic analysis. Results reveal that epidemic strains of S. enterica have specific genes and gene regions that were shared by isolates of the same subtype.

Rectonal junction colonization of feedlot cattle by Escherichia coli 0157:H7 and its association with supershedders and excretion dynamics
Article Abstract:
The observation of feedlot cattle for fecal excretion and rectoanal junction (RAJ) colonization with Escherichia coli 0157:H7 indicates that the presence of supershedders influence group-level excretion parameters.
