Nevertheless, the increasing poultry meat trade involving countries with different animal production practices could be an important source of epidemic clones carrying ESC-R genes. In this study phenotypic and genotypic characterization of resistance to ESC was carried out, as well as the clonal relatedness analysis of Salmonella obtained from poultry meat samples imported into Portugal in the scope of official border control between 2014 and 2015.engMolecular MicrobiologyMicrobial PhysiologyFood SafetyImported Poultry MeatSalmonellaAntimicrobial ResistanceClonesCMY-2European UnionSegurança AlimentarInfecções GastrointestinaisP-262 - Extended-Spectrum Cephalosporin-Resistant CMY-2-Producing Salmonella Heidelberg and S.
