Transmission Patterns of Multiple NDM Variants Producing Strains in Animal and Environment Settings from Live Poultry Market

The epidemical distribution and widespread transmission of <em>bla</em>NDM in livestock and live poultry industry has attracted considerable public attention. However, so far studies have not addressed its impact on public health in the LPMs, one of the most significant sale channels in live poultry trading. Herein, we report the prevalence and molecular epidemiology of <em>bla</em>NDM-positive bacteria from various niches, and further investigate the potential transmission patterns of <em>bla</em>NDM in the LPMs.

blaNDM基因（blaNDM）在畜禽及活禽养殖业中的流行分布与广泛传播，已引发公众的广泛关注。然而迄今为止，尚无研究阐明其对活禽交易市场（Live Poultry Markets，简称LPMs）内公共健康的影响，而活禽交易市场正是活禽交易中最为重要的销售渠道之一。本研究中，我们报道了不同生境中blaNDM阳性菌的流行情况与分子流行病学特征，并进一步探究了活禽交易市场内blaNDM的潜在传播模式。
