Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Non-typhoidal Salmonella From Retail Meat Products in California, 2018.

ABSTRACT: Non-typhoidal Salmonella remains a leading cause of foodborne illness in the United States, with food animal products serving as a key conduit for transmission. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses an additional public health concern warranting better understanding of its epidemiology. In this study, 958 retail meat samples collected from January to December 2018 in California were tested for Salmonella. From multivariable logistic regression, there was a 6.47 (90% CI 2.29-18.27), 3.81 (90% CI 1.29-11.27), and 3.12 (90% CI 1.03-9.45) higher odds of contamination in samples purchased in the fall, spring, and summer than in winter months, respectively, and a 3.70 (90% CI 1.05-13.07) higher odds in ground turkey compared to pork samples.
