Antimicrobial resistance in wildlife – potential for dissemination: Opinion of the Panel on Microbial Ecology of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
Nielsen, Kaare Magne; Gjøen, Tor; Asare, Nana Yaa Ohene; Lunestad, Bjørn Tore; Ytrehus, Bjørnar; Yazdankhah, Siamak Pour; Godfroid, Jacques; Jelmert, Anders; Klein, Joern; Okoli, Arinze Stanley; Tronsmo, Arne (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2018-03-16)<p>Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is recognised as one of the greatest public health concerns of our time. The development of AMR occurs in nature as a defence by microbes against naturally occurring antimicrobials. However, the selective pressure, generated by the use of antimicrobial agents in human and veterinary medicine, livestock and plant production as well as aquaculture practices, is the ... -

Skaar, Ida; Asare, Nana Yaa Ohene; Godfroid, Jacques; Jelmert, Anders; Ytrehus, Bjørnar (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2016-08-18)In 2015, The Norwegian Environment Agency requested the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety (VKM) to provide a scientific assessment of the information requirements laid down in the declaration form for the Regulation on microbial products and its guidelines, if these are sufficient to conduct a health and environmental risk assessment of the use of microbial cleaning products in ... -
Health and environmental risk evaluation of microorganisms used in bioremediation. Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Microbial Ecology of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety
Skaar, Ida; Asare, Nana Yaa Ohene; Godfroid, Jacques; Jelmert, Anders; Ytrehus, Bjørnar; Gjøen, Tor; Klein, Joern; Okoli, Arinze Stanley; Tronsmo, Arne (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2016)In 2015, The Norwegian Environment Agency requested the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety (VKM) to collate an overview of bioremediation of polluted ground based on bioaugmentation described in literature for the degradation of various types of pollutants, (including hydrocarbons, heavy metals, chlorinated compounds, explosives etc.).The assessment of genetically modified microorganisms ... -
Knowledge base for the assessment of environmental risks by the use of genetically modified virus-vectored vaccines for domesticated animals. Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Microbial Ecology of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety
Okoli, Arinze Stanley; Asare, Nana Yaa Ohene; Gjøen, Tor; Klein, Joern; Ytrehus, Bjørnar (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2016)The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety (VKM) was requested by the Norwegian Environment Agency in November 2015 to develop a knowledge base for assessment of the environmental risks related to the use of genetically modified (GM) virus vaccine vectors for vaccination of domesticated animals. The Agency requested that the task be conducted in the form of a desk study with the following ... -
