The bacteria isolated showed antibiotic resistance, raising concerns about food safety and public health.
Abstract
Imported foods play an essential role in food security and in fulfilling consumer demand. However, these foods can also carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which might be introduced into the country of importation. Here, we report the draft genomes of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that were isolated from imported fresh produce in Georgia, USA.
Genes, proteins, chemicals, diseases, species, mutations and cell lines named across the full text — each resolved to its canonical identifier and authoritative record.
