抗微生物是兽医和人类的当前医学不可或缺的一部分，可以治疗人畜共患病和传染病。不幸的是，不适当的抗菌使用（AMU）通常会使它们无效。

In order to maintain the well-being of both companion and food animals, all existing antimicrobial types, along with the development of new ones, need to be continuously accessible. This must be achieved with the concurrent introduction of official legislation and guidelines on the responsible use of antimicrobials.

在全球范围内，医生和兽医从业者对滥用抗菌药物的公共卫生影响和抗菌耐药性（AMR）的公共卫生意义感到严重关注。

英国兽医协会（（BVA) has issuedguidanceon the responsible use of antimicrobials, which can be summarized in the phrase ‘Correct antimicrobial: as little as possible, as much as necessary’.

在过去的几年中，这些问题导致AMR的概况非常高，这一事实显然可以明显看出。全球抗菌素抗性计划in 2015, developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in collaboration with theWorld Organisation for Animal Health（oie）和联合国食品和农业组织（（FAO), that will combat AMR through a one-health approach.

A year later, at the第71大会在联合国（联合国）中，重点仍然放在构建国际议程来管理AMR。2017年4月看到了世界兽医协会（WVA）发行official position关于抗菌剂的使用。该倡议的目的是将AMR的流行和发展限制在滥用抗菌药物中。在类似的倡议中，英国兽医协会（（BVA) has issuedguidanceon the responsible use of antimicrobials, which can be summarized in the phrase ‘Correct antimicrobial: as little as possible, as much as necessary’.

In addition to the aforementioned events,BMC微生物学andBMC兽医研究从与作者和读者最近的会议中，从与作者和读者的互动中推出这个主题系列的进一步动机。进一步来说，BMC微生物学attendedASM Microbe2017年，AMR是最中心的主题（阅读有关我们的经验here）。AMR的环境方面，缺乏适当的抗菌使用的官方立法，以及农场影响医院的方式是讨论中的重要主题。

On the other hand,BMC兽医研究attendedARAE 2017，这是全球AMR研究中的重要基石，允许那些在AMR各个领域工作的人聚集在一起讨论和分享思想，以减轻抵抗的影响。

关于该系列

For the above reasons, we believe that there is no better time to roll out this long-awaited thematic series. Henceforth,BMC兽医研究andBMC微生物学想邀请您参加我们的新主题系列：‘兽医抗菌耐药性和抗菌素’。

该主题系列将审查和特征是强大的兽医微生物学研究，并将考虑具有广泛抗菌剂的研究，包括抗寄生虫，抗病毒，抗菌，抗生素，杀真菌剂和植物生物学以及来自多样的，家庭化的脊椎动物动物来源，包括livestock，poultock，poultock，poultry，poultry，poultry和伴侣。

我们欢迎在司机和》提交ms of AMR and its emergence and on the incentives/disincentives of AMU and knowledge in different production systems, and especially in food production. We will investigate the role of regulation and policies, the role of the farm environment and the animal attendants and the consequences of all of the above on public health.

还将考虑技术进步，包括用于建设预警系统的分子工具以及任何其他形式的预防，早期诊断和治疗。还将考虑审查和辩论文章，但由编辑决定。

We believe that this topic is of importance to veterinary and medical practitioners, microbiologists and policy makers, and the published articles aspire to examine the current use of antimicrobials and their implications in animals and the environment. The articles will also endeavor upon the level of resistance to antimicrobials and their prominence in terms of animal and human health.

Please submit directly toBMC兽医研究orBMC微生物学在您的求职信中说明，您针对的是“兽医抗菌抗性和抗菌使用”系列。或者，您可以将您的提交询问发送给hayley.henderson@biomedcentral.comandcecilia.devoto@biomedcentral.com

提交手稿的截止日期是2018年12月15日。

We look forward to hearing from you!
