Summary

Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) are the genes that allow bacteria to survive antibiotic treatments. These genes can be found in beneficial gut microbes, and occur more frequently in infants than adults. These genes can also transmit between different bacterial species. Exclusively breastfed infants carry fewer ARGs than formula fed infants. We are trying to find out if care-givers working with exclusively breastfed infants have fewer ARGs than those working with formula fed infants.
