Abstract
Campylobacter spp. is an important foodborne zoonotic pathogen. In the past few years, the increased spread and antimicrobial resistance of Campylobacter resulted in highly concern from medical and veterinary fields. Europe, United States and China have all established the monitoring system of antibiotic resistance for Campylobacter from various origins. Meanwhile, amounts of studies have been carried out. Animal was one of the major sources of Campylobacter, so there is a potential risk for Campylobacter to infect humans via food chain. Herein, this paper summarizes the research progress of Campylobacter of animal origin for the better understanding of the spread and antibiotic resistance of Campylobacter in Europe, United States and China.
