Antimicrobial resistance and genetic relatedness among Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni from humans and retail chicken meat in Taiwan.

Our research highlights significant associations in antimicrobial resistance and genetic relatedness between Campylobacter isolates from chicken meat and humans in Taiwan. The genetic analysis data suggest that campylobacteriosis outbreaks may occur more frequently in Taiwan than previously assumed. Our study emphasizes the need for strategies to control multidrug-resistant strains and enhance outbreak prevention.
