  • Poultry litter as potential source of pathogens and other contaminants in groundwater and surface water proximal to large scale confined Poultry Feeding operations
    Science of The Total Environment, 2020
    Co-Authors: Laura E Hubbard, Michael T Meyer, Carrie E Givens, Dale W Griffin, Luke R Iwanowicz, Dana W Kolpin
    Abstract:

    Abstract Manure from livestock production has been associated with the contamination of water resources. To date, research has primarily focused on runoff of these contaminants from animal operations into surface water, and the introduction of Poultry-derived pathogenic zoonoses and other contaminants into groundwater is under-investigated. We characterized pathogens and other microbial and chemical contaminants in Poultry litter, groundwater, and surface water near confined Poultry Feeding operations (chicken layer, turkey) at 9 locations in Iowa and one in Wisconsin from May and June 2016. Results indicate that Poultry litter from large-scale Poultry confined Feeding operations is a likely source of environmental contamination and that groundwater is also susceptible to such Poultry-derived contamination. Poultry litter, groundwater, and surface water samples had detections of viable bacteria growth (Salmonella spp., enterococci, staphylococci, lactobacilli), multi-drug resistant Salmonella DT104 flost and int genes, F+ RNA coliphage (group I and IV), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs; blaDHA, blaOXA-48, blaTEM, blaCMY-2, tetM), phytoestrogens (biochanin A, daidzein, formononetin), and a progestin (progesterone). In addition, mcr-1 (a colistin ARG), was detected in a groundwater sample and in another groundwater sample, antibiotic resistant isolates were positive for Brevibacterium spp., a potential signature of Poultry in the environment. Detectable estrogenicity was not measured in Poultry litter, but was observed in 67% of the surface water samples and 22% were above the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency trigger level of 1 ng/L. The transport of microbial pathogens to groundwater was significantly greater (p

  • antimicrobial residues in animal waste and water resources proximal to large scale swine and Poultry Feeding operations
    Science of The Total Environment, 2002
    Co-Authors: Enzo R Campagnolo, Kammy R Johnson, Carol S Rubin, Emilio J Esteban, Russell W Currier, Kathleen Smith, Adam Karpati, Dana W Kolpin, Michael T Meyer, Kendall Thu
    Abstract:

    Abstract Expansion and intensification of large-scale animal Feeding operations (AFOs) in the United States has resulted in concern about environmental contamination and its potential public health impacts. The objective of this investigation was to obtain background data on a broad profile of antimicrobial residues in animal wastes and surface water and groundwater proximal to large-scale swine and Poultry operations. The samples were measured for antimicrobial compounds using both radioimmunoassay and liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS) techniques. Multiple classes of antimicrobial compounds (commonly at concentrations of >100 μg/l) were detected in swine waste storage lagoons. In addition, multiple classes of antimicrobial compounds were detected in surface and groundwater samples collected proximal to the swine and Poultry farms. This information indicates that animal waste used as fertilizer for crops may serve as a source of antimicrobial residues for the environment. Further research is required to determine if the levels of antimicrobials detected in this study are of consequence to human and/or environmental ecosystems. A comparison of the radioimmunoassay and LC/ESI-MS analytical methods documented that radioimmunoassay techniques were only appropriate for measuring residues in animal waste samples likely to contain high levels of antimicrobials. More sensitive LC/ESI-MS techniques are required in environmental samples, where low levels of antimicrobial residues are more likely.
