Description
Grazielle Cioletti and co-authors track nose germs in dairy calves fed drug laced milk in a 2026 study. Farms often feed waste milk to young calves to save cost. That milk can hold drug traces, which may shift germs and drug resistance.
Eleven bull calves got plain milk replacer or replacer with low drug doses. Deep nose swabs were taken each two weeks through the milk phase. Deep gene reads mapped germs and resistance genes in each swab. Germ mix and spread did not differ by feed or by age in the kept samples. Resistance gene patterns fill out the rest of the report.
