La résistance aux antimicrobiens (ou RAM, cette abréviation étant est ici également employée en mode adjectif pour désigner les organismes « résistants aux antimicrobiens ») est une préoccupation majeure pour la santé publique mondiale et une question de sécurité san...itaire des aliments. Lorsque des pathogènes deviennent résistants aux agents antimicrobiens, ils peuvent présenter un risque plus important pour la santé découlant d’un éventuel échec thérapeutique, de la diminution de choix thérapeutiques et de la probabilité accrue d’apparition et de gravité de la maladie. Les problèmes en rapport avec la RAM sont liés de façon inhérente à l’usage des antimicrobiens dans tous les types d’environnements, y compris les utilisations humaines et non humaines. L'utilisation d’agents antimicrobiens dans la production alimentaire animale et végétale représente un facteur de risque important pour la sélection et la transmission de micro-organismes résistants aux antimicrobiens (micro-organismes RAM) et de déterminants de la résistance aux antimicrobiens (déterminants de la RAM) des animaux et des plantes alimentaires à l’humain par sa consommation d’aliments.
