Tuberculosis en España

Weblog Madri+d de Seguridad Alimentaria y Alimentación published this online article


La tuberculosis es una enfermedad infectocontagiosa reemergente que afecta aproximadamente a un tercio de la población mundial (2.200 millones de personas), causando 1,6 millones de muertes anuales. El principal agente etiológico de esta enfermedad en humanos es Mycobacterium tuberculosis, transmitida fundamentalmente por vía aerógena produciendo lo que se denomina “tuberculosis pulmonar”. Sin embargo, una de las formas más importantes de esta enfermedad a escala global es zoonótica, es decir, una infección transmitida desde los animales al hombre… Read more

Abundance and phenotypic diversity of Escherichia coli isolates with diminished susceptibility to expanded-spectrum cephalosporins in faeces from healthy food animals after slaughter

Veterinary microbiology publish this investigation article


Antimicrobial resistance (AR) is an increasing phenomenon but its quantitative estimation remains controversial. The classical resistance percentage approach is not well suited to detect either emergence or low levels resistance. One option is to shift the focus from strains to hosts. This approach is applied to test for phenotypic diversity associated with diminished susceptibility to expanded-spectrum cephalosporins (DSESC) in faecal Escherichia coli from healthy food animals in Spain. We performed E. coli enumeration in faecal samples of broilers (82 pooled samples) and pigs (80 pooled samp… Read more

Risk assessment applied to Spain`s prevention strategy against highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1

Avian diseases publish this investigation article


Notifiable avian influenza (NAI) had never been reported in Spain, until July 2006 when a dead Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus) was found positive to the highly pathogenic H5N1 subtype as part of the active wild bird surveillance plan. The current program of the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food (MAPA)`s strategic preventive plan against NAI is divided in the following parts: identification of risk areas and risk wild bird species, increased biosecurity measures, early detection of infection with surveillance intensification and development of rapid diagnostic tests,… Read more
