The rapid growth of multidrug-resistant Salmonella is a global public health concern. aim this study was to detect integrons, colistin and β-lactamase resistance genes in enteritidis typhimurium. A total 63 isolates S. (n = 18) typhimurium 45) from fecal samples layers rats at chicken farms were screened for antibiotic resistant genes. Conventional PCR performed the detection integrons (classes 1, 2, 3), (mcr-1-5) (blaCTX-M, blaCTX-M-1, blaCTX-M-2, blaCTX-M-9, blaCTX-M-15, blaTEM, blaSHV,...
Abstract Background Proteus mirabilis has been identified as an important zoonotic pathogen, causing several illnesses such diarrhoea, keratitis and urinary tract infections. Objective This study assessed the prevalence of P. in broiler chickens, its antibiotic resistance (AR) patterns, ESBL‐producing presence virulence genes. Methods A total 26 isolates were confirmed from 480 pooled chicken faecal samples by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The disk diffusion method was used to evaluate...
Campylobacter jejuni is a major cause of food-borne human gastroenteritis worldwide and designated as high priority antimicrobial-resistant pathogen by the World Health Organization (WHO). In this study, total 26 C. isolates from broiler chickens were screened for presence virulence antimicrobial resistance genes PCR. As result, study detected 11/26 (42.3%), 9/26 (34.6%), 8/26 (30.8%), 7/26 (26.9%), 6/26 (23.1%), (23.1%) cdtC, pldA, cdtB, cdtA, cadF, ciaB genes, respectively, with seven...
Background and Aim: Infections with Campylobacter species have gained recognition as the most frequent cause of foodborne gastroenteritis globally. Their significance in South Africa is still an area study interest. This was, therefore, carried out to determine occurrence chickens from North West Province well their antibiotic sensitivity status. Materials Methods: A total 2400 chicken fecal samples were collected pooled a 480 five registered active poultry abattoirs Ngaka Modiri Molema...
