Human intestinal bacteria as reservoirs for antibiotic resistance genes. (2004, background): “If these foods are not properly cooked, the resistant bacteria will enter the intestinal tracts of consumers and will have the opportunity to commingle with members of the resident human microflora [ 5 ,14].”
The Impact of the Gut Microbiota on Human Health: An Integrative View (2012, neutral): “As discussed above, antibiotics have a noticeable, lasting effect in the composition of microbial communities (Dethlefsen et al., 2008; Jernberg et al., 2007; Sullivan et al., 2001).”
