Highlights: The mitigation of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is crucial for safeguarding human, animal, and environmental health and promoting sustainable aquaculture in Bangladesh. In 2023, WorldFish conducted 4 trainings covering wider aspects of AMR testing in the laboratory, including sample collection, necropsy, bacterial species isolation, DNA extraction, and molecular identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) to assess the resistance profile of One Health significance pathogens from aquaculture samples. A total of 31 people from the Department of Fisheries (DOF), Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI), Poultry Research and Training Center (PRTC), and Khulna University participated in the training.
