Good practices-Preliminary findings
• Coordination/info sharing between authorities including labs
• One Health – coordination with other authorities• Do the MS use the info obtained - Trend analysis
(e.g. for approval of antimicrobials, setting targets)
• Voluntary testing, imports, vegetables, companion animals, etc.
• Genotyping
![Page 20: AMR monitoring project - Antimicrobial Resistance · AMR monitoring project 7 April 2017 Copenhagen Javier Tellechea Directorate F: Health and food audit and analysis Directorate](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071116/5ffc488519d8910adf6e9e99/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Challenges
• Coordination between laboratories – samplers• Transport conditions: 48 hrs sampling-testing • Collection of Salmonella isolates Reg. (EC) No
2073/2005• Adaptation to MIC determination
