Antimicrobial resistance in enteric bacteria isolated from retail turkey and veal meat
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This thesis is an investigation of the prevalence of, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in, enteric bacteria isolated from retail turkey, and grain- and milk-fed veal purchased from grocery outlets in Southern Ontario. ' Campylobacter' was detected in 46% and 1%, and 'Salmonella ' in 24% and 4% of the turkey and grain-fed veal samples respectively. Non-type specific 'E. coli' was detected in 95%, 88% and 87% of the turkey, grain-fed and milk-fed veal samples respectively. Turkey AMR findings included ceftiofur (14%) and ceftriaxone (1%) among 'Salmonella ' isolates, and ciprofloxacin (6%) among 'Campylobacter' isolates. AMR findings in veal included ciprofloxacin (4% of 'E. coli ' milk-fed veal isolates) and ceftiofur (3% of milk-fed and 0.4% of grain-fed veal 'E. coli' isolates). This thesis has demonstrated that retail turkey and veal meat represent potential sources of exposure for enteric pathogens and for AMR for consumers in Southern Ontario.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
