Three conventional pig farms with known use of antimicrobial agents and one organic pig farm were chosen for this study. A total of 390 fecal samples were collected from 390 finisher pigs. On the conventional farms a mix between in feed therapeutic/preventive antimicrobials and injectable antimicrobials were used.
At least 25 grams of fresh feces was collected aseptically from each animal. These samples were either collected per rectum directly into a sterile glove or were caught directly into a sterile plastic container as the pig defecated.
