Data for: Occurrence, Risk Factors and Antimicrobial Resistance of Campylobacter from Poultry and Humans in Central Ethiopia: A One Health Approach

Campylobacter in Poultry and Human in Central Ethiopia: A One Health Approach
https://doi.org/10.5878/bstc-9153

This study aimed to contribute to the possible reduced spread of Campylobacter in poultry, humans, and the environment in central Ethiopia. This was done by identifying the key risk factors, including poor farm management, biosecurity gaps and inadequate hygiene practices and farm worker awareness using a One Health approach to highlight areas where interventions can reduce transmission. The One Health concept emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. This study aims to address health risks holistically. Campylobacter isolated from poultry, humans and the environment were identified and subtyped. Additionally, the study evaluated the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles of the identified Campylobacter species. Antimicrobial resistance of the isolated Campylobacter spp. was analyzed against nine different antibiotics from five antibiotic classes: quinolones (nalidixic acid, ciprofloxacin, and norfloxacin), macrolides (erythromycin), aminoglycosides (streptomycin and gentamicin), phenicols (chloramphenicol), and tetracyclines (tetracycline and oxytetracycline). The data file contains 46 rows (Campylobacter spp.) and 15 columns, with the data explained in the documentation file 'Readme_AMR_Result.' Poultry farm workers were interviewed using a structured questionnaire to gather information about farm practices related to Campylobacter risk factors, consumption habits, hygiene practices, and awareness of Campylobacter as a zoonosis and the One Health concept. The data file contains 122 rows (respondents) and 37 columns (survey questions), along with three columns detailing the microbiological results for each isolate. The data is explained in the documentation file 'Readme_questionnaire_results.
