A glimpse of antimicrobial resistance gene diversity in kefir | ResearchBunny

Index

Abstract

This study investigated the diversity of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in kefir and yoghurt samples (products, grains, bacterial strains) using a metagenomic approach. Numerous ARGs were found, conferring resistance to various antibiotic classes. The findings suggest that starter culture strains should be monitored to minimize ARG intake through food.
