Epidemiological and genomic analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii strains from retailed raw meat
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: cannot be considered as a food-borne pathogen, colonization of raw meat can favor the propagation of this species in the community, facilitating the entrance of novel clones in the hospital environment. Once entering hospital settings, susceptible clones could turn into multidrug-resistant lineages under strong selective pressure. To avoid this risk, accurate hands and kitchen utensils hygiene should be recommended to all those in contact with raw meat.
