Table 3. Number and proportion of Salmonella isolates resistant to different antimicrobials recovered from swine and cattle samples between 2006 and 2015.

Antimicrobiala Swine (n = 2,537) Cattle (n = 1,167)
Resistant strains % resistant 06–15 trend (95% CI)b Resistant strains % resistant 06–15 trend (95% CI)b
Ampicillin (A) 1771 69.8% -3.26 (-5.5 to -1.0) 479 46.6%
Ceftiofur (C) 780 30.7% -3.73 (-6.4 to -1.0) 377 36.7% 6.41 (2.2 to 11.0)

Trimethoprim/ Sulfamethoxazole (Ts) 838 33.0% 112 10.9%

a Spectinomycin was not included due to the availability of an accepted breakpoint for Salmonella

b Annual rate of change in the proportion of resistant isolates for antimicrobials in which a significant trend (chi-square test for trends with p<0.05) was found.
