Animal Pharm Antibiotics in Animal Production 2016

ReportsWorldwide has announced the addition of a new report title Animal Pharm Antibiotics in Animal Production 2016 to its growing collection of premium market research reports.

The global market size for antibiotics use in animal production is large and consumption is projected to reach 105 596 tonnes by 2030. However, extensive evidence now reveals the contribution that antibiotic use has made to the development of antibiotic resistance and its resultant consequences for public health.

This comprehensive report fully explains the threats, legislative and consumer responses, and the research and strategies underway to reduce or eliminate the use of antibiotics in animal production

Antibiotics are used in animal production as therapeutic agents to cure and control disease, and also as non-therapeutic agents or as antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs).

However, the use of AGPs has elicited substantial controversy in relation to the development of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic bacteria, which has led to the emergence of ‘superbugs’ and extremely drug‑resistant tuberculosis.

One response to the growing concerns around antibiotic resistance is to develop non-antibiotic antimicrobial agents. Considerable research is being carried out to develop non-antibiotic therapeutics using quorum-sensing quenchers, iron chelators, lectin inhibitors, phage therapy, phytochemicals, antimicrobial peptides, probiotics, and vaccines.

There has also been an increased focus on the use of various feed additives, such as feed enzymes, organic acids, phytochemicals, prebiotics and probiotics. Another response was to develop antibiotic-free systems that focus on disease avoidance and health maintenance rather than using therapeutic treatments. Significant progress has been made in reducing and even eliminating antibiotics from dairy cows, pigs and poultry.
