Researchers have described how climate change could have an impact on Salmonella and antimicrobial resistance.

Scientists analyzed more than 236,700 Salmonella genomes from 139 countries or regions over the period 1940 to 2023. They selected annual mean temperatures and rain levels as indicators of climate change. Future

An analysis published in The Lancet Planetary Health reveals a 10% increase in antibiotic resistance genes in Salmonella linked to climate change. The study examined over 480,000 Salmonella genome samples from 139 countries.

Scientists have estimated that most Campylobacter cases in an English county are associated with poultry meat, and that many of them are resistant to antibiotics.

The level of antibiotic resistance shown by a type of Salmonella differs between regions, according to researchers.

The study highlighted the genetic diversity of Salmonella Panama, a pathogen responsible for frequent foodborne infections in the French West Indies and French Guiana and revealed the evolution of a bacterium that

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in key foodborne bacteria is still an area of concern in Europe, according to the latest figures.

Resistance to common antimicrobials remains widespread in foodborne bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter but several countries reported progress in reducing resistance levels in humans and in food-producing animals.

A survey in Australia has revealed a minimal level of resistance to antibiotics of high importance to human health across three meat types.

Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) said there is a low risk of bacteria from raw retail meats being involved in resistant infections or spreading resistance when
