Antimicrobial Resistance
The development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria is becoming a major global threat. The Norwegian Veterinary Institute (NVI) is both national reference laboratory and responsible for national monitoring on AMR in animals, food and feeding stuffs. This, together with a highly skilled staff, certified laboratories, and extensive national and international cooperation, provides an excellent basis for our extensive AMR research.
