Data Sheet 1_Antimicrobial resistance knowledge and practices among animal drug vendors in

Kano State, Nigeria, is the focus of a cross-sectional survey of 132 registered animal drug vendors conducted in December 2024. The data likely contains demographic information and scores on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) knowledge, attitudes, and dispensing practices. The dataset was created by Zainab Bello Dambazau and published on figshare in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze associations between education level and AMR knowledge based on demographic and knowledge score variables
• Model the impact of prior training on dispensing practices based on training history and practice scores
• Compare knowledge and practice levels across urban vendors based on location and KAP classification data

Strengths

• 132 vendor records provide a specific sample size for analysis
• Data includes specific KAP scores (34.8% adequate knowledge, 65.2% positive attitudes, 23.5% good practices)
• Survey conducted in a defined timeframe (December 2024) and location (Kano State)

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Data reflects a specific geographic and demographic bias (99% male, 98.4% urban vendors)
