Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The success of our initial Special Issue, "Antimicrobial Resistance in Veterinary Science," comprising 13 publications, has led us to publish a follow-up edition on the same theme. Building upon the momentum generated by our 2023 publication, for this second volume, we invite researchers to contribute manuscripts exploring antimicrobial resistance in a broad spectrum of veterinary animals, encompassing food animals, wild species, and domestic companions.
We actively encourage submissions of interdisciplinary endeavours and collaborative research spanning multiple centres. Original research articles employing various study designs, literature reviews, and meta-analyses are all welcome.
This Special Issue seeks contributions covering various topics, including epidemiological studies, phenotypic and genotypic resistance profiling, and diagnostic methodologies tailored to animal-centric antimicrobial resistance detection. Moreover, we are interested in exploring the role of animals in disseminating resistant bacteria and the potential utilization of artificial intelligence in resistance detection in animals. Additionally, we welcome studies focusing on the surveillance of AMR in animals.
Through this Special Issue, our predominant objective is to consistently accumulate insights into the veterinary sector's involvement in the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, aligning with the fundamental principles of One Health, which underscores the interconnectedness of human health, animal welfare, and environmental wellbeing.
Dr. Nahla O. Eltai
