Abstract
genes, considered resistant to the last line of AMR, were identified in part of farms. The transferability and the prevalence of these AMR strains were intensively studied. Our monitoring is comparable to human clinical research and has an essential reference for public health safety. These findings will provide early warning for AMR strains and guide the clinical use of antibiotics to control the spread of antibiotic resistance.
