View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:Klebsiella pneumoniae-Kp is a clinically-relevant but neglected multidrugresistant-MDR bacteria at the One Health interface. Studies on poultry production to depict factors contributing to Kp selection/persistence remain scarce. Here we evaluated Kp occurrence and diversity among chicken flocks, its environment and derived meat produced in 7 intensive farms-FA where copper-supplemented feeds are widely used.
