Summary:
Concerns about the acquisition of antibiotic resistant genes in human and animal pathogens is one of the main public health issues. The problem of the emergence of resistant microorganisms such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) associated to livestock is closely linked to high use of antimicrobial agents in veterinary care, and international trade of food of animal origin which can encourage the spread of resistant strains. Drug-resistant bacteria may circulate in human and animal populations trough food, water and the environment, and its transmission is encouraged by trade, travel, human migration and transhumance
