When talking about animal production, there are many problems caused by the agricultural sector to the environment, which were somewhat ignored until a certain time ago, but nowadays they are part of the main issues related to the production of food animal origin. The productive chain requires that there be adequate management in each of its stages, because any negligence in any of these stages can result in health and / or environmental problems. Therefore, in assessing this context, there is a need for adequate and productive systems that fit the ecologically correct animal production issue, introducing concepts of sustainability in farms, farms, among others. The present work, through an objective review, aims to alert and signal the environmental impacts of animal production, especially to those directly or indirectly related to climate change, and, in addition, believing that the future of the Planet depends on the adoption of sustainable alternatives. Feasible solutions to reverse countless situations that have an impact on the environment

We investigated the distribution of serotypes and patterns of drug resistance of 206 strains of salmonella isolated in southern Italy in the years 1998–2000 from raw food of animal origin, faeces of food animals and animal feed. To improve knowledge of mobile genetic elements carrying the resistance genes, some molecular features were also investigated within isolates resistant to three or more antibiotics. A high proportion of isolates, 52.2% and 37.7%, respectively, belonging to both Typhimurium and other serotypes of animal origin, proved to be multidrug resistant. The DT104 complex specific multidrug pattern of resistance was quite infrequent among isolates other than Typhimurium, but resistances to nalidixic acid and kanamycin were more frequent within these last ones (36.9% vs. 11.4% and 56.5% vs. 2.2%, respectively). Class I integrons were detected in isolates of Typhimurium and seven different serotypes. The relevance of food animal environment as a drug resistance reservoir and animal food as a potential resistance gene vehicle between the farm and human ecological niches is confirmed by our findings.

ABSTRACT Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) has emerged rapidly to become the most prevalent extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli clones in circulation today. Previous investigations appeared to exonerate retail meat as a source of human exposure to ST131; however, these studies focused mainly on extensively multidrug-resistant ST131 strains, which typically carry allele 30 of the fimH type 1 fimbrial adhesin gene (ST131-H30). To estimate the frequency of extraintestinal human infections arising from foodborne ST131 strains without bias toward particular sublineages or phenotypes, we conducted a 1-year prospective study of E. coli from meat products and clinical cultures in Flagstaff, Arizona. We characterized all isolates by multilocus sequence typing, fimH typing, and core genome phylogenetic analyses, and we screened isolates for avian-associated ColV plasmids as an indication of poultry adaptation. E. coli was isolated from 79.8% of the 2,452 meat samples and 72.4% of the 1,735 culture-positive clinical samples. Twenty-seven meat isolates were ST131 and belonged almost exclusively (n = 25) to the ST131-H22 lineage. All but 1 of the 25 H22 meat isolates were from poultry products, and all but 2 carried poultry-associated ColV plasmids. Of the 1,188 contemporaneous human clinical E. coli isolates, 24 were ST131-H22, one-quarter of which occurred in the same high-resolution phylogenetic clades as the ST131-H22 meat isolates and carried ColV plasmids. Molecular clock analysis of an international ST131-H22 genome collection suggested that ColV plasmids have been acquired at least six times since the 1940s and that poultry-to-human transmission is not limited to the United States. IMPORTANCE E. coli ST131 is an important extraintestinal pathogen that can colonize the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and food animals. Here, we combined detection of accessory traits associated with avian adaptation (ColV plasmids) with high-resolution phylogenetics to quantify the portion of human infections caused by ST131 strains of food animal origin. Our results suggest that one ST131 sublineage—ST131-H22—has become established in poultry populations around the world and that meat may serve as a vehicle for human exposure and infection. ST131-H22 is just one of many E. coli lineages that may be transmitted from food animals to humans. Additional studies that combine detection of host-associated accessory elements with phylogenetics may allow us to quantify the total fraction of human extraintestinal infections attributable to food animal E. coli strains.
