Description
K C Moabelo and team survey drug resistance in Listeria bacteria from South African cattle farms in a 2026 study. Listeria can taint food and gravely infect people. Resistant strains on farms threaten farm output and the people who eat the food.
One hundred isolates from Mpumalanga and North West provinces faced tests against sixteen antibiotics. Every isolate resisted at least one drug. In the harmful species Listeria monocytogenes, resistance to several older drugs hit total levels. Two drug classes stayed largely spared. Patterns differed between provinces for three medicines. District, farm type, and sample type showed little sway on the patterns for the most part.
